Web Quest #1

(CWU Masters Online Resource Locating Challenge)

Directions
This web quest challenge was designed to familiarize you with some of the physical education resources available to you on the web. Your challenge is to try to complete the various tasks with the minimal amount of assistance from others. Most of the tasks can be completed by going to the selected sites and locating the requested information. See what you can do by yourself but before it gets too frustrating be sure to ask questions! Have fun.
