Tool Kit Activity: Wikis
I am glad to have both contribuited to a wiki this week, as well as undertake the wiki tool kit activity. Besides considering the affordances and challanges of incoprporating a wiki in to my teaching practice, it was interesting to have discovered the “discussion” section of wikipedia articles. I had never noticed this tab before. This “behind the scenes” look at what goes into collaboratively creating an article is perhaps as interesting as the article itself. These documents should be studied in a social anthropology study. Comments ranged from inquisitive to irrate.
