What is a wiki?
A wiki is a very simple webpage that can be edited by multiple users – the most famous example is Wikipedia, an encyclopaedia which is continuously written and rewritten by web users all over the world. Most wikis are on a far smaller scale and can be used to fulfil a wide range of different tasks or projects in the classroom whether your aim is to push information out to students and parents, encourage students to work collaboratively on a project – or a bit of both.
what can a wiki do for you?
Well there are number of things I could list here but I’d say that the headlines are that a wiki can be used to:
- Organise information and make it easily accessible
- Share ideas and resources
- Foster collaborative and group work with your students
- Encourage independent and learner-led learning and
- Develop easy home-school links
- What can I use a wiki for with my class?
So let’s get down to brass tacks. What EXACTLY can you use a class wiki for. I thought the best way to tell you this was to show you some examples. But remember, the only limit on this is your imagination.
