Thing #16 Wikis

Since collaboration is key to a successful library program, wikis might be a good place to start. One of my English teachers wants her students to do group essays. We discussed using google docs, but a wiki is another option. If we decide to go with a wiki, I think it needs to be ongoing throughout the year. A class wiki would be a good place to work on essays, post notes, hold discussions, post book reviews, etc. I'm certainly going to show her some of these wikis to see if she is willing to give it a try!
