Hi all (apologies for cross-posting)
We're developing a tool which will allow educators to build what we have
been calling "web quests" - basically journeys through the web with a
level of curation to help users make that journey.
I know the phrase "webquest" is actually A Thing. See http://webquest.org.
Now - if you look at the "recently published" webquests list
(http://questgarden.com/author/reports/recentpubs.php - the search
doesn't appear to work...) you'll see that a webquest seems to be
basically "a simple set of web pages" with some kind of authoring system
underneath it.
This isn't at all what we're developing - the tool we've got sits
alongside existing web pages and guides people through these so that
users can refer back to the direction the journey is taking at any time.
So my questions:
1) Does anyone on the list recognise or use the webquest.org model - is
it still a thing? Is it useful?
2) Do you have any examples you can point me to which are more like the
thing we're proposing? Or is my description too fluffy for words...
Thanks!
Mike
