The Introduction Paragraph is meant to set the stage and to "hook" the student. It is there to create interest and give an overview on what is about to come in the webquest.
If students are to take on a specific role in an imaginary scenario, the Introduction section is the place to let your imagination run wild and explain. This section helps determine how exciting your students will be about completing the task. |
