Energy WebQuest

Process

1. Individuals from your larger WebQuest team will explore the Internet Links related to your energy source below.

2. Read through the files linked to your group. While you look at the files on the computer, copy sections you feel are important by dragging the mouse across the passage and copying/pasting it into the data collection form you put in Microsoft Word.

3. Be prepared to focus what you've learned into one main display that answers the Question based on what you have learned from the links for your energy source.
