What are wiki's?
Its like a Google doc with discussion boards. its an interactive site that allows students to participate and contribute to class projects and discussions.
What is the instructional value of wiki's?
The instructional value can be high if used correctly. students can work from home or school and do ongoing projects that would use group work. Plus a teacher can moderate the posts and discussion to maintain relative content. Teachers must monitor the relevance of the information they are using. some sites that are blog based are not always factual!
How can this tool be used in the classroom?
At this point in our economical situation, this can not be used in the classroom, unless you are doing it at school only. some students do not have access to internet, computers, etc. This would further increase the gap between students of privilege.
