What a difference a week makes! Last week I blogged about the people I am taking an online class with through Chadron. We were given a group project (15 in the group) and told to collaborate on the discussion board. Yeah right. There were two groups of 15 each....it would have been many hundreds of posts. I convinced the vast majority of my colleagues to try to the wiki. They eventually got tired of listening to me (I can be persistent when I want something) and tried it. Here it is a week later and they are inquiring about how to set up their own wiki.

We ran into a few snags, but everything went fairly smoothly. There are still some things I need to learn how to do, but after watching this wiki evolve I can see even more potential in them as a learning/teaching tool than I did a week ago. (www.csconline.wikispaces.com) If you check it out you might want to go back in the history. Instead of simply adding a new page I deleted the unnecessary postings. Now I know better, but it is all part of the learning process. I am just thrilled that I was able to help over a dozen people add something to their repertoire. They may use it again someday. Who knows? Maybe they will become a Web 2.0 addict like me!
