meaningful and fun. Creating the task is the most difficult and creative part of developing a WebQuest.
 Process-The steps the students should take to accomplish the task. It is frequently profitable to reinforce the
written process with some demonstrations
 Resources - The resources the students should use. Providing these helps focus the exercise on processing
information rather than just locating it. Though the instructor may search for the online resources as a separate
