Historical Hoopla

• Change Over Time
• Lyrical Legacy

When we first began working with WebQuests more than a decade ago, they were in their infancy. Emphasis was on searching for information and resources on the Internet. The original Webquests were traditional education put online. That was before the development of the newest communication and media processing tools.

Today, effective learning has evolved into a multimedia experience. High quality learning environments are a blend of online and face to face communication and collaboration with others in global settings. Learners follow their interests, engaging in authentic, relevant 'real-world' issues that become the foundation for building a digital identity.

Lifelong learning skills develop as we come to understanding our own learning preferences and how others learn as well. We contribute to the learning of others by developing literacy coaching skills and through creating social navigation resources.

Finally, we advocate for improving the quality of life for those who cannot help themselves. Our digital identity becomes sustainable as we generate new ideas, create new visions, and find new uses for current resources.
