The Most Common Question I get is "What is a Webquest"?
A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. These can be created using various programs, including a simple word processing document that includes links to websites OR even your own webpage/website.

Benefits of using a WebQuest
1) Student Centered Lesson
2) Allows the teacher to facilitate and spend more time with the weaker students
3) Allows students to work on a lesson outside of class (new/old)
4) Students can collaborate and work together to complete tasks in a timely manner
