Wiki is the way to go

This week we learned about Wikis and how beneficial they can be to classes. Everything went well when creating our class' wiki. I had to create my page two times but that was due to my inability to remember to save the changes, but other than that I had no problems in adding my page. I have to admit my mind is already starting to race trying to think of really cool ways to use them in my class. I know some students like group work and some don't but wikis can alleviate some of the problems. If I give them a question and ask the groups to come up with a hypothesis and to create an experiment. With wikis they do not have to email each other every single time something is edited. I think thats amazing if only I knew about this before I could have spared some of my own group members a lot of pain and trouble.
