Most students taking Ed Tech couses have probably heard of WebQuests. The WebQuest project was proposed by Dr. Bernie Dodge and encourages a structured (scaffolded) approach to student web explorations. Dr. Dodge is continuing to refine the idea of web inquiry and now is advancing an approach called the WIP – Web Inquiry Projects. Basically, the idea is that students will not always have a teacher around to structure their web explorations and generalizable inquiry skills must be developed.
