The objective of the WQ is for students to learn, and to acquire
new concepts, procedures and principles, that to issue judgment, to know
how to negotiate meanings and to draw conclusions in a group, to develop
strategies for searching, selecting and synthesizing information that they know

Proceso
In this section we will specify:
The process of developing a webquest consists of five steps: selecting a topic, topic or problem that is of interest to students. From there analyze that problem and decompose it into parts that will constitute the design model. Thirdly, the characteristics of the final product expected to be carried out by the students and the evaluation criteria will be established. Fourthly develop webquests with their online resources. And finally check that all the links work and that the design is understandable by students.
