A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. The model was developed by Bernie Dodge at San Diego State University. Well designed, grade appropriate webquests can certainly help students develop strong research skills and hone their ability to compare and evaluate information from different sources.
