WebQuests
During our final in class session, and again as part of our small group work, we had the chance to check out several sites dedicated to educational webquests. Some of them were good, but many of them were nothing more than worksheets with a couple of links on them. I found that to be frustrating. I have found some really fun, interactive webquests to use with my students. I use them to reinforce topics and to get them engaged in their learning. An online worksheet just isn't going to cut it with my students. I have been wanting to create my own webquests, but as with most great ideas, I haven't had time to follow through. I did find a couple of templates and webquest builder sites, so that may just be the motivation I need to actually create one.

I know that you have some experience with webquests already, so you would be a great educator to develop one yourself. Since you recognize what is helpful and what is not, your students would really benefit from your expertise.
