Short Term WebQuests
The instructional goal of a short term WebQuest is knowledge acquisition and integration, described as Dimension 2 in Marzano's (1992) Dimensions of Learning model.
At the end of a short term WebQuest a learner will have grappled with a significant amount of new information and made sense of it.
A short-term WebQuest is designed to be completed in one to three class periods.
