Tue, Jul 27, 2004 Constructing a Lasting Peace in India and
Pakistan - a Webquest with Wiki Constructing a Lasting Peace in
India and Pakistan: A WebQuest for 10th Grade World History was
designed by Dan McDowell. It provides a nice example of a
conflict related webquest that requires students to draft a
shared document after multiple rounds of negotiation on core
ideas and drafts of their texts. It uses a “Wiki” online text
editor to permit students to do their shared editing from
wherever they are, with a history of changes made available at
all times. The simulation’s use of a wiki requires students to
learn a new technology, but the learning curve is not too steep.
