Thing #16: Wikis

We’ve used Wiki’s for assignments in other courses. Personal experience has taught me that it’s an exceptional tool for working asynchronously in a group setting. For example, rather than email a document back and forth among group members, a Wiki board can help accomplish a similar task with less fuss. When it comes to the classroom setting, you can use a Wiki much like you would use a discussion board. Everyone can post and respond accordingly if they have access (sign in/password).

Overall, it is a fine tool. I've used Wikis in the past, and I'll probably use them again in the future.
