A Teacher's Webquest:

Your goal is to find a published webquest that could fit into your curriculum.
         The webquest should address a topic you currently teach or a generally meet a state or national standard for your subject/grade area.

         If the webquest is intended for independent study for one student, you can use it as is, or adapt the stated goal to your specific learner.

         If the webquest is intended for use by diverse learners, you should consider choosing a webquest that can provide more than one goal. Imagine one exit point for the students who might only be able to accomplish the basic skills/goals of your lesson. Imagine a more difficul exit point for the students who work more quickly. Don't forget your gifted students. Try to structure a challenging exit point that will give them an opportunity to stretch into the upper levels of Bloom's Taxonomy:
