WebQuest

Although I was not familiar to the WebQuest application prior to creating one, WebQuests can be another tool in an educator's tool belt to utilize technology in the classroom.  An interesting thing about WebQuests is that they're instructor created and they can literally cover any subject a teacher would like to cover.  For example, in the WebQuest I created, I compared the Roman Republic to the United States federal government.  With a number of different links throughout the internet for students to explore the information themselves, WebQuests are a great tool for educators to incorporate the internet in to students educational experience.
