A webquest allows students to learn at their own pace using online resources, freeing teachers from simply presenting information. Webquests should capture students' attention, clearly outline goals and tasks, and provide appropriate resources and self-assessment tools to guide students through learning. Teachers can find both high-quality and poor-quality webquests online, so they must evaluate each based on factors like how well it structures the process and summarizes the activity. An example webquest is reviewed to demonstrate how to design an effective lesson.
