This week’s collaboration was on a UBC wiki that John created for us. As always, the asynchronous nature of the collaboration was very helpful and works great with the wide-variety of “other” demands that are placed on all of us on a daily basis. It was interesting to hear people’s experiences with social media in the classroom. It was quite varied as was to be expected.<\/p>\n
I didn’t find the visual appeal of the discussion board to be present in the wiki however. The threads are easy to follow and always have a name attached so you know who is speaking. In the wiki the work was more anonymous when it came to the summing up and key ideas sections. I have worked in a wiki format in a small group and I think that there is a great deal more accountability than in a group as large as our whole section. It didn’t feel like people were as engaged with the discussion as they might have been were we in small groups.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
