WebQuests

A new kind of learning activity is the web quest. It can be seen as an educational 'treasure hunt'. There is a clear task and goal and all activities are done via the web. It's an example of learning by doing.
There are some places where you can find ready-made web quests, such as DiscoverySchool.com or webquest.sdsu.edu/matrix.html. A problem with web quests is 'link rot', you need to constantly check if all links are still valid.
