There are many ways to evaluate student's performance on a webquest. Most produce some kind of project or written work which can be graded. Many webquests provide time for discussions, like this one does, PowerPoint presentations, or other times when students can be evaluated on their participation and performance. Rubrics are often used to evaluate students' performance.
