In addition to providing teachers with an excellent tool for communicating with students, there are numerous educational benefits of blogs.
Highly motivating to students, especially those who otherwise might not become participants in classrooms.
Excellent opportunities for students to read and write.
Effective forums for collaboration and discussion. Powerful tools to enable us to scaffold learning or
mentoring to occur.

What is a Wiki?
Essentially a dynamic, collectively authored set of web pages.
Invented in 1995 by Ward Cunningham to facilitate online collaboration about programming and design best practices.
Evolved by the early 2000’s into a way to facilitate all kinds of online collaboration.

Wiki – Wikipedia Definition
A wiki (according to Ward Cunningham) is a type of website that allows users to add and edit content and is especially suited for constructive collaborative authoring.
In essence, a wiki is a simplification of the process of creating HTML pages combined with a system that records each individual change that occurs over time, so that at any time, a page can be reverted to any of its previous states.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki

How the Wiki Got Its Name

How the Wiki Got Its Name
“Wiki-wiki to the beach.” - Elvis Presley (as Chad Gates) in the movie Blue Hawaii (1961). The line was said with a snap of the fingers.

More about Wikis
Wiki (according to UIC Prof. Steve Jones) Web-based Interactive Kollaborative (collaborative) Iterative
Wiki is sometimes interpreted as the backronym for “What I Know Is”, which describes the knowledge contribution, storage and exchange function.

What Can You Do With a Wiki?
Easily create and edit web pages, including styled text, hyperlinks, pictures, audio, video, etc.
Easy for a group to collaborate on creating online documents
![Page 24: Tet200 Blogs And Wikis](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052823/55563cf1d8b42a8d0f8b464d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Obstacles to Adoption
Wikis are usually open to anyone, and “if anyone can edit my text, anyone can ruin my text” (not so, since changes are logged, authors are notified, pages are easily restored – no challenge to hackers).
Authority is unclear – who “owns” a collaborative document?
Wiki openness is at odds with typical work habits

first 24 hours after it was first posted, and another 149 times in the next 24 hours.

Heavy Metal Umlaut in Wikipedia (ö, ü)
“The 8.5-minute screencast turns the change history of this Wiki page into a movie, scrolls forward and backward along the timeline of the document, and follows the development of several motifs.”
