A WebQuest is a webpage/website that is used for educational objectives. Our webquest assignment was to choose a topic, and develop a webquest on that topic. Our group chose Social Studies, 6-8th grade, and the topic was World Religions. The demos really helped put the assignment into perspective. It was a very easy site to use, and I really enjoyed the assignment. I really liked this site. The only thing I did not like was that there was no "help" or "FAQ" option. I did not know how to insert a link. So, I guess you need a bit of computer knowledge when creating a webquest. I think webquest can be used for every subject and every grade level. Our group chose 6th-8th, and another chose kindergarten. It's really an all around tool for everything. I think that this would be a great tool for the annual book fair that takes place on island. You can insert links to sites for children to research their book topics, check definitions, search for images, etc. The possibilities are practically endless.
