Back to School with Wikis

Wikis allow for a personalised learning experience as well as learning as part of a community through collaboration with others in shared activities. What’s more they can be a source for creativity and inventiveness.

Are you wondering how you could start the new term by introducing your class to the wonderful world of the wiki? If you need some ideas to help you get started, here’s some from a group of educators commenting on the PBwiki blog.

Another great idea for students is to use a wiki for note taking – fully legible notes, share with others, link to, search. See this ‘tip of the week’. Plus there’s more advice for students on using wikis for note taking here.
