A WebQuest can also be created using a word processing program like Word or AppleWorks.

The following are instructions for using Microsoft Word 2001 for Mac.  These will vary slightly depending on version and platform.
 

1. To insert an image, simply go to the INSERT menu and choose Picture from File.

You will have to save the image first, but you already know how to hold your mouse down on any image on the web and save it into your folder.
 

  

You can also insert a clip art image from the Word program itself by going to the INSERT menu and choosing Clip Art.
(These images will vary according to the version of Word that you have)

 
2. To create a link, type the words you want viewers to click on, e.g.,
 
Hereís a great translation site!
 

Highlight the words and go to the INSERT menu, choose Hyperlink.
It will ask you the URL to which you wish to link (http://babelfish.altavista.com).   Donít forget     http://
 

The rest (creating good tasks & projects for students/teachers once they visit your prearranged sites) is up to you!
 
 

If you're using a PC or an older version of Word, the menu titles may vary somewhat.
Just check under the HELP menu to find ìInsert Pictureî and ìHyperlinkî.  Thatís all you really need to know.
