Wonderful Wiki

Before this class I had never heard of a Wiki.  After today I feel I have a much better understanding though.  I thought it was interesting the term Wiki comes from the Hawaiian "wiki, wiki" which means "quick, quick."  Wiki's help multiple people to add, delete, and edit content on a web page.  A benefit of a Wiki is it can reduce and even eliminate the need to email.  I think Wiki's are a wonderful tool for older groups of children.  They would be able to collaborate on a class project or find help with homework.  I am unsure and wonder how I would be able to use a Wiki with younger children.  However, I think using Wiki's in a 2nd or 3rd grade classroom might be very beneficial for children.  I hope to continue to learn even more about Wiki's and other wonderful ways they may be used.  Click here to view our class Wiki  http://tpte486.pbworks.com/
