MysteryQuest World Geography
Welcome to the ** MysteryQuest ** video conference project. This project is designed for middle school students studying world geography. Through video conference technology students are able to meet other students while learning about cities and countries in the world. Prior to the video conference each classroom will create a presentation with clues about their **ONE mystery country and city**. The other classrooms, using maps, the Internet, textbooks, and other resources, will try to discover the ** mystery location ** presented by each participating classrooms.
