Wiki Questions

What can a wiki be used for?

  • A repository/database of information
  • A collaborative tool in schools and business

How can a wiki be utalised in a school/class situation?

  • Wiki could be used as a discussion board between class regarding assignments and group work.
  • Maintaining a group wiki could be part of the course work for that class to teach online IT skills and team building exercises.
  • Could be used to upload class materials for students so that they are able to access handouts and assignment sheets at all times, at school and home.
  • Wiki could be a way for students to submit work. This may be a little complicated as each students work would have to be keep confidential and separated from their classmates.
