Introduction
Internet scavenger hunts are a way for students to practice problem solving, improve their reading and comprehension skills, and learn how to search the Internet. The hunts can be geared to virtually any curriculum area, simultaneously providing students with technological and subject matter knowledge. Online scavenger hunts can be used as a whole class activity, as a team activity, or as a means of providing individual students with review or challenge activities.
