Now, let me explain what Webquests are and then I'll upload one that I created last year:
This information is taken from: http://www.thirteen.org/edonline/concept2class/webquests/index.html. I'll only type the key idea of a WebQuest, but I invite you to search more information about them on this website.
What is a WebQuest?
A Webquest is an inquiry-oriented online tool for learning. It's a classroom based lesson i which most or all the information that students explore and evaluate comes from the World Wibe Web.
Beyond that, WebQuests:
- can be as short as a single period or as long as a month-long unit;
- usually(though not always) involve group work, with division of labor among students who take on specific roles or perspectives;
- are built around resourdes taht are preselected by the teacher. Students spend their time USING information, not LOOKING for it.

From my point of view, I'd be great to use WebQuest as a final project to be presented at the end of the year, and it'd consist of a task for each syllabus taught. At the end of the course, Students would have a final product with the contents they've learnt during the whole year. Just a thought. oh! what's more, we could engage student's attention with an interesting topic they might know but they could make a deeper research on it. In my case, I choose "Alice in Wonderland". Then I'll present it to you ;)
