Teaching with wikis in Higher Education & What wikis need to wrk in educational contexts
From WikiSym 2008
- Wikis in Higher Education
- While many university faculty, across all disciplines, have incorporated online technologies such as discussion boards into their classes, wikis have not gained the same kind of buy-in. An Open Space discussion about the potential role of wikis in higher education might be useful--talking about encouraging colleagues to try them, or sharing particularly useful assignments.
- What kinds of new assignments are made possible in a wiki? How do wiki (or wiki-style) platforms change the horizon of possibility of traditional assignments? What role can wikis play in liberal arts education? What concerns are raised by moving student work into a wiki, particularly one that's available online? (This is arguably related to the Junkies Like Us session.)
