For the final task in this module, we're going to ask you to create a simple webquest, using a design tool, Filamentality.

We will take you through the steps involving creating your webquest and then describe an example of one webquest created for this course using Filamentality on teaching the novel Fahrenheit 451. You will then be sharing your webquest with some peers on the tappedin.org site - something we will be discussing later in this module.
