Thoughts about using wikis

What did you think about the wiki-writing experience? Can you think of ways to use wikis professionally? For students?

Wikis

We'll discuss both student and teacher uses of wikis.

• Here's an example of a wiki as an online textbook.
• Here's an example of a wiki as a student collaborative writing project.

We'll use a wiki in a similar way. Form workgroups and collaborate on writing about supported text. The result will be a wiki with definitions and examples of supported text written by YOU.

You'll need to create an account at Wikispaces.com to get started. Once your account is set up, then go to the Supported Text Wiki and join.
