However, the WQ, being a structured research, is criticized for not allowing more freedom to thestudents, since restricts the information sources, previously selected, and defines the products that will beproduced by them. A new proposal, the Web-Inquiry Project [WIP], emerges as an activity less structuredthan WQ, allowing to the students freedom to conduct their own research. They can choose online datasources, identify ways to manipulate and analyze them and also choose the best strategies forcommunicating their findings. WIP must be seen as an alternative that advances in relation to WQ exactlyby allowing more autonomy to students. The article describes the WIP, highlighting the convenience of itsinclusion in High School and Higher Education curriculum, what should be considered by the school thatintends to be contemporary of a society immersed in information and communication digital technologiesand that seeks for better uses of Internet, as a resource for learning, combined with autonomy.Keywords: WebQuest – Web-inquiry Project – internet – school – autonomyRezumatWebQuest (WQ) a fost o strategie importantă propusă de către Bernie Dodge pentru utilizarea Internetuluiîn şcoli. Însă, datorită faptului că este o cercetare controlată, WQ este criticată pentru că nu permite maimultă libertate studenților, limitează sursele de informație, selectate anterior, şi defineşte rezultatele carepot fi obținute. A apărut o nouă propunere, Web-Inquiry Project (WIP) , ca o activitate mai puțin controlatădecât WQ, permițându-le studenților o mai mare libertate de a efectua propriile cercetări. Aceştia pot alegesurse online de date, pot identifica metode de manipulare şi analizare acestor date precum şi cele mai bunestrategii de diseminare a rezultatelor obținute. WIP trebuie privit ca o alternativă la WQ, dar una care leoferă studenților o mai mare autonomie. Articolul descrie proiectul WIP, subliniind disponibilitatea acestuiapentru a fi inclus in educația liceală şi universitară, precum şi ce ar trebui ca să cunoască şcolile care iauacest program în considerare, în legătură cu societatea informațională şi tehnologiile de comunicaredigitală, ca resurse de învățare autonomă.Cuvinte cheie: WebQuest – Web-inquiry Project – internet-şcoală-autonomieRevista de Informatică Socialăanul VII, nr. 14, decembrie 2010ISSN 1584-384X
