Using Wikis in Educational Contexts:
Over the past year, CALPER has worked with a local instructor implementing the use of Wiki in IECP (Intensive English Communication Program) courses at The Pennsylvania State University. Experiences from this endeavor, and examples of use, will be available on this page soon.
The following list, from TEFA external link, outlines some education uses of Wikis:
  • Information sources (simple websites easily created)
  • Student assignement hand-in (with the advantage of peer ratings)
  • collaborative web-writing (to co-contsruct collective knowledge, KB)
  • problem solving
  • project spaces
  • anchored collaboration (anchored newsgroup-like discussions for reviews),term invented by Turns and Guzdial
  • focused discussions (forum-like discussions)
  • case libraries (projects "Hall of Fame")
  • cross class/courses projects (interdisciplinary projects)
  • community building among students ("Hot Lists", common interests, adventure games!)
  • for learning to collaborate (to change the individualism culture of traditional instruction)
In a Foreign Language context, Wikis can be used in the production of collaborative L2/L3 text.
