Long URL’s are a Really Bad Idea
URL’s are not meant for human eyes.
Links should be used by titles. Bad: www.myedesk.org/~moeai
Good: Pam’s eDesk

Underlined Text
Do not underline text on WebPages, even if it is a title of a book or article.
Only use underline text for links.

Internet Free
Lessons In order for it to
be a WebQuest… it
MUST use the web!

What a WebQuest REALLY is…

Gratuitous Roles
Roles should be used when there are definite roles to be distinguished, as in
a farmer and a land developer, or when you are dealing with job skills
that are tied to real world jobs. Don’t make up roles if they are not
necessary. Make sure roles represent skills, or expertise, and are used to
make large tasks smaller.

Bogus Tasks
Make sure that the introduction makes sense
with the tasks. Tasks need to be real
world.

Just a Research Report?
If students are just reading a bunch of stuff only to write a report, then the
WebQuest misses the point. This does not require them to transform
information or apply knowledge. Let’s do something better if we are going to
call it a WebQuest.

Just a Worksheet?
Don’t have the student just fill out a worksheet as
result of a WebQuest.

Breathless Hyperbole?
Avoid over use of !!!, one will do the job. Don’t gussy stuff up with punctuation
marks.

Trivial Rubric Rows
Rubric items must be measuring learning, not compliance. The
rubric should be intimately attached to the learning task,
and the tasks attached to state standards. It should all be
focused on what they should be learning.
![Page 16: 15 Ways to Your WebQuest! According to Bernie Dodge A PowerPoint by Pam Moeai pmoeai@graniteschools.org pmoeai@graniteschools.org](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649eec5503460f94bfe2a2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Drifting into Third Person
WebQuests should be written to the learners. It should be written to address the kids, and written in 2nd person.
![Page 17: 15 Ways to Your WebQuest! According to Bernie Dodge A PowerPoint by Pam Moeai pmoeai@graniteschools.org pmoeai@graniteschools.org](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649eec5503460f94bfe2a2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Bare Beginning
The front door should not look barren. A picture that conveys the content should be used. The Introduction Page should be appealing.

Process is Just Busy Work The Process should
build toward the accomplishment of a
task that teaches something and builds on each other. Tasks should
shoot for higher level thinking.
