Industrial Revolution WebQuest #1
This WebQuest allows students to research life during the Industrial
Revolution. Rather than focusing on specific inventions and events, they can experience the Industrial Revolution as
either a member of the lower class, middle class or upper class. They will use their research findings to create a newspaper
article that describes how the Industrial Revolution has made life better and/or worse for the class they have been labeled.
Industrial Revolution WebQuest #2
This WebQuest, which also involves researching the Industrial Revolution,
allows students to look more into the actual inventions and new developments of the time. Each group of students will

information relating to their category, and they must prepare a presentation and essay that will teach the rest of their classmates
about their topic.
