Thing 12…

The wiki concept allows a group of people to add comments and collaborate on issues without sending, editing, and resending memos or emails. I like the social implications as well as the time-saving features of a wiki. The book lover’s wikis work well in a media center setting. In addition to books, students can include comments about movies and games. They can write collaborative stories, do reading circle work, group projects, etc.

Wikipedia is not banned by my teachers, but we do not encourage an end-all reliance on it. Students are given freedom to read it, but cautioned about its editorial policies.

I chose to edit the Neflin wiki.
