Webquest

Webquests can definitely be a useful tool for students to use because it is very straight forward and easy for them to follow and it is a way of learning that doesn't necessarily feel too much like school, it is a fun way for them to learn while enjoying it. webquests are a great way to captivate them and keep them busy while allowing them to work themselves and feel independent. Games in general are a great way to learn especially for younger kids, so a webquest is a great way to set up a whole outline of how to get to certain websites.

These are some example webquests I found:
http://education.nmsu.edu/webquests/wq/dino/dinosaur.htm, I liked this one because it was very well set-up and fun to explore with.
http://education.nmsu.edu/webquests/wq/ocean/index.html, this was also a fun way to learn.
http://education.nmsu.edu/webquests/wq/bugs/index.htm, the different tools and games to play are very interactive for students to play with.
