As mentioned before, in our room, we use Hyperstudio and Digital Chisel. Counseling offices should also have access to various reference books available such as the Peterson's reference. It would be advantageous for students to have access to a phone that they could use to contact the schools if necessary. The websites to be used have been listed throughout this activity, Certainly there are others out there. If you come across one that you think works better please feel free to contact me and let me know.
Time is probably the other great resource available to students.
In order to keep things moving along I prefer to have the activity last no longer than two weeks. This is a long period of time considering how the work has been divided. The way I have established the WebQuest many different schools can be selected by students. If there are local schools that are willing to become involved they would make a good partner to steer particular groups. Most schools appreciate all the opportunities for recruiting that they can get.
