  2. What in the World is a Wiki? Presented by Barry Wiginton Integration Specialist Technology in Motion--OTI Classroom Applications

  3. What is a Wiki? • “Wiki Wiki” means "rapidly" in the Hawaiian language. • Simple Web page publishing.A Web site which allows users to add and edit content collectively. Example: Wikipedia • A collection of Web pages, each of which can be visited and edited by anyone. I would choose “Protected” for a Teacher’s Wiki. You will have to add your students as members but it is the most secure format.

  4. Wikis in the Classroom • Classroom Uses: • A Teacher’s Web site • Student Collaboration on a writing or research project • Forum for gathering information from a large group

Who Will Edit the Wiki? • Single:one person will edit the whole wiki • Example: Teacher creates a Web site to inform parents and students. • Group:a community of peers will edit the wiki • Example: A class of students work on a class project. • Mass:a group of people who may or may not know one another will edit the wiki • Example: Learning community of educators or studentsworking collaboratively with students from another school.
