This document introduces webquests, which have been used since 1995 to help students develop higher-order thinking skills through guided internet research. A webquest typically includes an introduction with background on a topic, tasks for students to complete, a list of curated resources for students to use, and an evaluation rubric. Webquests are beneficial as they get students actively engaged in solving real-world problems using online resources without requiring them to search for information on their own.
