- How can a wiki be used in a current class on your schedule (not this course)? Pick a class and be specific how the class could create and use a Wiki on a regular basis (tip: Use the Internet, here is a good source).
A wiki can be be used in history class to create study guides. Students can edit the page to add more helpful information on their assigned topic of the study guide. If several study guides for different chapters were added to the same wiki page, then the wiki could also be a study guide for finals and midterms.
2. What are the benefits of using a wiki in class?
Using a wiki is beneficial in class because it allows everyone to participate and contribute to the wiki. Students can collaborate together to create a wiki that can be viewed by anyone in class and can help them learn the material.
3. How can we create a wiki in this class, what would be contribute to it and how would be utilize it on an on-going basis?
We can create a wiki in class by using a website that allows us to create a wiki page. An idea of what we could contribute to it is the topic of how to improve our blogging skills. Students could discuss ideas and provide helpful criticism for each other every week after the blog postings are updated.
4. What experience do you have using or creating wikis?
Whenever I hear of a topic I am curious about, I briefly look at a wikipedia page on it. I have created wikis on wikidot.com in history class last year.
