Internet Scavenger Hunt – Computer Class Activity

Use internet search engines to locate a specific factual answer to a research question.

Identify and record the source URL where a research answer was found.

Complete an independent, graded research task without copying from classmates, per the worksheet's own instructions.

Distribute only the blank student worksheet file; keep the separate answer-key file for grading, since the two are packaged as distinct files.

Remind students of the worksheet's own five-Wikipedia-lookup limit before they start, to push them toward a wider range of sources.

Use the bonus question at the end as an early-finisher or tie-breaker task, since it stands apart from the 25 numbered items.

Internet research strategy — students use search engines to track down a specific fact among 25 varied general-knowledge questions.

Source citation — students record the exact URL where each answer was found, not just the answer itself.

Independent work habits — the worksheet explicitly frames the task as individual and graded, not a group project.
