Wikis: Tellacollaborative Uses

(1) A UMBC Professor has used this for short writing assignments in her Shakespere Courses. She claims it breaks the monotony of collection, grading, discussion. She has small groups work on the assignments and has students claim that it was more fun working on them in this form.

(2)An issue that comes up not just in a tellacollaborative sense, but as a universal problem of wiki would be what is it authority on such information? This article discusses are wikis worth the time to use as a learning tool?

In the end, Wiki's Telecollaborative use, if use with a sense of purpose and careful planning, is a very enriching experience.
