Thing 15....Wiki What?

     I was rather pleased by the concept of Wikis. They are a great way to collaborate with others, rather than sending emails, word of mouth, etc. around and resulting in with lots of confusion. For instance, I could post a feed on a wiki site and have my students comment their ideas or change things the way they think they should be.
     Also, I can get my students to use them for group projects. For example, I could put up a wiki for each group with a list of different roles and their requirements. The students can individually go in and edit the page. They can choose which role to take on and list the things they plan on contributing to the group's project/presentations, and then the other group members will have a clear idea of what else needs to be done.
