A great WebQuest

Using the website, http://bestwebquests.com, I found an excellent WebQuest on nutrition for secondary students at http://www.web-and-flow.com/members/jcundiff/fastfoods/webquest.htm. I plan to use the structure of this WebQuest, "Living in the Fast (food) Lane" when I create my own WebQuests. I appreciated the final sentence of this WebQuest, "You made your OWN decisions, formed your OWN opinions, and presented your OWN argument. You're free! Doesn't it feel great? ” As teachers, we want students to be confident, thoughtful and independent life-long learners.

  1. I taught Phys Ed for a couple of years at our Middle School. I never thought of incorporating a WebQuest into the class. A WebQuest like the one you mentioned would have been an excellent addition to a health unit.
