Webquests, originally designed by Bernie Dodge and Tom March of San Diego State University, are web-based projects in which students take a predetermined journey across the net to learn about and synthesize their knowledge on a specific topic. Usually these journeys are preceded by a hypothetical or real world problem or issue that motivates and engages students while providing authenticity and relevancy to the learning experience.
