Welcome to the...
           

Here you can find all the information you need to create a successful presentation. It is divided in sections corresponding to the different members of your teams, but remember that since you are working together as a team of experts, you should SHARE the knowledge in order to build a choral piece of work. Do not forget: each of you is one part of a group and never works alone. That's the webquest spirit!

If you scroll down the page, you will find the General Interest Resources section, which comprises resources useful for everyone, no matter what role you play, and for the creation of your final work as well.
