Digital Tool 3: Wikis for Collaborative Learning

The use of Wiki has its place in the classroom, particularly in the upper and middle years of primary school. I was amazed at how extensively Wikis had been used at Korea International School.

A Wiki is different to a blog in many ways. The Main difference between a Wiki and a Blog is that a Blog can only be edited by the person who created it whereas a Wiki can be edited by any person at any time, this has major implications for their use in learning design. Wikis can be best used for students to collaborate on tasks. Used in the correct way a Wikis potential is mind boggling!
