Teachers' Attitudes Toward WebQuests as a Method of Teaching
Perkins, Robert; McKnight, Margaret L.
Computers in the Schools, v22 n1-2 p123-133 Jul 2005
One of the latest uses of technology gaining popular status in education is the WebQuest, a process that involves students using the World Wide Web to solve a problem. The goals of this project are to: (a) determine if teachers are using WebQuests in their classrooms; (b) ascertain whether teachers feel WebQuests are effective for teaching students; (c) determine some of the problems associated with using WebQuests; and, (d) discover the relationship between teachers' comfort level using WebQuests and the degree to which they are integrating WebQuests into classroom curriculum, by using the Stages of Concern Questionnaire.
