I have used several WebQuests in my classroom over the past few years. My students have always loved the process of going through each step and coming to a solution or final product. Although I've used many, I have never actually created one myself. I found the process of creating the WebQuest to be fairly easy. The most difficult part is coming up with "Good" websites to use for the activity. I am excited that I now know how to create a WebQuest. I actually never realized that you could make one through PowerPoint. I will definitely use webquests as a teaching tool this year. I would like to create several about North Carolina. Students could easily explore NC's three regions, history, and historical places through webquests. One could also use webquests to explore science topics such as electricity, food/nutrition, and rocks/minerals. WebQuests will be a wonderful asset to my 4th grade classroom.
