Primary Global Footprint Webquests

This is a collection of webquests developed by the Humanities Education Centre for primary schools as part of a set of sessions with years 5 and 6, to research global issues and to create powerpoints, webpages, animations and video on their work. Their work is then incorporated into the webquest. To find out more please contact HEC at 020 7364 6405 and visit a webpage explaining one of our projects.
