Best use for wikis

Wikis:

The best use of a wiki is for collaborative knowledge building. A wiki allows for shared ownership for all members, meaning that together the authors of a wiki determine what information is posted online. Because a wiki is a great place to share and document information, it can be thought of as an easy-to-create collaborative website.

Features of a wiki:

  • Easy to create website
  • Easy collaboration beyond classroom
  • Extend discussion beyond the classroom
  • Trackable page edits


Ideas for classroom wikis:

  • a resource for all assignments, rubrics, deadlines and resources to increase home-school communication
  • a “home-base” for bringing multiple tools together
  • a presentation format to demonstrate student learning
