The WebQuest model we are introducing here was designed and researched in the context of second language teaching and learning (Pérez Torres, 2005).

The new feature of this L2 WebQuest model, with respect to the original one, is a new critical element: the direct instruction of language through the development of a Language Workshop in which the student has to do several activities related to those linguistic aspects that, in each case, are considered relevant: lexis, syntax and use of English, as well as other activities that put into practice learning strategies related to the language skills that students should improve in each situation (reading, writing, speaking or listening).
