Session 5 Wikis and Online Production

I can see lots of uses for a wiki in the educational setting both for teachers and students. I can see that there will need to be some specific guidelines but what a powerful collaboration tool.

Google docs is interesting. I can see this as an educational solution to the cost of upgrading software. I like that your documents save automatically and that you can save your documents to the Google server.

I agree that you would have to have some guidelines for working with a wiki, particularly if you were using it with students. I like your idea of having students from different periods collaborate on a project.

I think that eventually we will have to use something like Google docs instead upgrading Microsoft Office.
