Most of the time the activities they are doing are no more than "treasure hunts."<br /><br />I've always thought that Webquest were centered around solving problems and creating products which involve collaboration and cooperation. If students are done with the quest and they all hand in the same finished product, it probably wasn't a Webquest :-)<br /><br />I really appreciate the work done by <a href="http://webquest.org/index.php" rel="nofollow">Bernie Dodge and others at San Diego State University</a> with regards to encouraging the creation of true inquiry-based Webquests.<br /><br /> This is something I'd like to revisit again.
