A WebQuest is an educational activity in which learners research information, mostly using sources on the internet. WebQuests often ask learners to take on a "role" or a specific issue to research. A WebQuest has a specific set of components, including goals for learning, and is not just a list of links to other websites. The WebQuest technique has the benefit of always being current in the information students learn. It can also be used with many age levels of learners, which increases its usefulness.
