Given the limited budgets of schools, educators, and school
librarians, free and open source tools for learning are more
important than ever. Essentially, wikis are easily accessible
webpages for creating, browsing, and searching through information,
making them ideal vehicles for teaching and collaboration. In this
pathbreaking collection, theoreticians and practitioners from a
range of international settings explore how wikis are being used to
create learning experiences in a variety of educational
environments, from grade schools through universities. Offering
numerous hands-on examples of using collaborative webpages with
learners, this book gives teachers, educators, and instructor
librarians a theoretical overview of the concept of web-based
collaboration and the social implications of the participative web
written by Mark Guzdial, a pioneer in using wikis in education; an
understanding of how wiki-engines function as a flexible tool for
collaboratively creating, linking, revising and regrouping
hypertext content; pragmatic guidelines for the educational use and
application of wikis, including applications as e-learning
management systems, informational resource libraries, online
tutorials, maker community project creation, and digital asset file
management; strategies for setting up a learning unit the "Wiki
Way" and choosing the most appropriate and suitable wiki-engine in
a particular education setting; coverage of two different
scaffolding models for learning scenarios which have been
implemented and tested in the US, Germany, Hong Kong, and China.
Enabling readers to see how wikis' content and content creation
processes can be harnessed for instructional design, this
collection represents an important advance in improving education
through collaborative technologies.
