Event Description

"What is a wiki?" you say. Let's take a look at what a wiki is and how it can be used as a tool for online student collaboration. Whether used to create a reference library or a collaborative teaching tool, wikis are an easily accessible Web 2.0 tool that can be used in any class. Works great in the one-computer room or in the computer lab.

Actually, I was going to suggest the same thing. It is a great overview of what a wiki is and why they are such useful tools!

I don't want to steal Karolee's thunder, but if anyone wants to get an overview of just what a wiki is prior to this session, check out a short online video by Commoncraft called, "Wikis in Plain English." You can also watch the video on YouTube.
