	Webquests in the Classroom

About PHS Webquests:

During the school year 2003-04 Parker High School teachers attending training sessions on how to create webquests. Bernie Dodge, San Diego State University, is most often credited with developing the concept of webquests to enhance student learning. "The WebQuest is valued as a highly constructivist teaching method, meaning that students are "turned loose" to find, synthesize, and analyze information in a hands-on fashion, actively building their own understanding of the topic." (Wikipedia.org)

Today, PHS teachers are still encouraged to utilize webquests with their students. Teachers can use webquests created by others or create their own. If a teacher would like his/her webquest uploaded to our server, please contact Mrs. Leivas in the library.
