What is a Webquest? **A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented online tool for learning, says workshop expert Bernie Dodge. This means it is a classroom-based lesson in which most or all of the information that students explore and evaluate comes from the World Wide Web**. Beyond that, WebQuests:
 * **can be as short as a single class period or as long as a month-long unit;**
 * **usually (though not always) involve group work, with division of labor among students who take on specific roles or perspectives;**
 * **are built around resources that are preselected by the teacher. Students spend their time USING information, not LOOKING for it.**
