WebQuest for Florida Teachers by Florida Teachers

USF graduate social studies education students have just added 13 more Webquests for Florida teachers to use in their classrooms with middle and high school students. The WebQuest project is a service of the University of South Florida's Social Studies Education program.  The WebQuests site has almost 50 WebQuests organized by History, Geography, and American Government. Each webquest includes a separate gateway page for the students and a Teacher's Page that includes all the resources necessary to guide students through this self-paced independent learning activity. The new government WebQuests includes such topics as A Citizen’s Guide to the Bill of Rights and Interest Groups and Public Policy  

Teacher's can access the WebQuests by going to http://www.coedu.usf.edu/main/departments/seced/webq/Social%20Studies/default.htm
