Welcome to the TNC. This presentation is going to be a introduction to webquests. When I started putting together this webquest I began to wonder if Web 2.0 tools would replace teaching strategies such as webquests but I think that the webquest still has its place in education. Teachers are able to put them together prior to using them with students and the webquest directs students learning while still placing students in control of their learning. Schools districts feel comfortable that the teacher is able to evaluate the site before students use the webquest and teachers feel comfortable that there is an specific project at the end of the webquest. Traditionally webquests use sites for reference materials but, in time, I think we will start to see more webquests that use Web 2.0 tools in order for students to create projects and interact with others.
