Social Media and Learning
(not too sure where to post this on my blog?)
I enjoyed creating a wiki as a class. The advantages are that you can all collaboratively work on a document or explore a topic. It is great to hear from everyone and to be exposed to a variery of experience and ideas. As a class we put together a great resource on social media and learning.
However, I do think that a wiki has some challenges. The most important challenge of the wiki is that it does not seem to have a cohesive flow to it. Each student makes their addition and the wiki gets bloated. This keeps going on and on. What it needs to be better organized is some editing. I find that wiki’s rarely have someone editing because no one wants to delete another persons work.
