On his site, Best WebQuests.com http://www.bestwebquests.com/default.asp Tom separates "the best from the rest." He does this by using an assessment matrix that assesses WebQuests on eight traits. His list of the best includes only 4 WebQuests in the area of foreign languages. Another place to look for WebQuests is: http://webquest.org/ Once at this site, click on the links to Top, Middling, or New Webquests. |
