WebQuest - for engaging in critical thinking
Teachers choose to create a WebQuest when...
- you want students to tackle big, complex, or gray questions
- students could benefit from cooperative learning
- the subject warrants a deeper understanding
- students would benefit from a more real world learning experience
When it's time to go beyond learning facts, connecting emotively, or developing concepts, to put all these together and get into the grayer matter, your students are ready for a WebQuest. A WebQuest is an inquiry activity that presents student groups with a central Question and related Task. Access to the Web (and other resources) provides abundant grist from which collaborative student groups construct meaning. The whole learning process is supported by prompting / scaffolds to promote higher-order thinking When designing a WebQuest it's best to choose a topic that's either large, complex or in dispute. Current events, social issues, and environmental systems, etc. all work well. Also anything that requires evaluation or scientific hypothesizing will evoke a variety of interpretations. The products of Web Quests are usually then put out to the world for some type of real feedback. You might want to use an WebQuest as a first activity to quickly immerse students in real learning, then go back and fill in the broader picture with a Knowledge Hunt or Subject Sampler.
