This week we studied wikis. The wiki I am working on, which is still in VERY early stages, is a tech tips wiki for my campus. It will be a place to discuss the tech used on campus. It will contain setup and usage tips as well as a troubleshooting guide.
I think wikis are a great idea. There are plenty of great ways it can be used. Being updated by the intended audience is a great way to collaborate. It does, however, lead to inaccurate information. There are ways to prevent this, but it is important to monitor the updates to make sure that it only contains the proper information.
I visited a wiki called eLearning Tools that explores various Web 2.0 technologies for teaching. Two things that are discussed are audio and video podcasts. I think this is a brilliant way to deliver instruction. I am actually working on a podcasting lesson for another class.
