What’s In
Wiki is a web application that allows collaborative editing of its content and structure by
its users. Wiki is different from a blog since wiki allows users to add, edit, or delete content that is
posted on the website while blog does not allow others to modify the original material posted.
The term “wiki” comes from the word wikiwiki which means “quick” in Hawaiian.
The first WIKI was created by Ward Cunningham in 1995. The most popular wiki is the
Wikipedia. It is a free, open content online encyclopedia where registered users can publish an
article and anybody can do it. Wiki is designed to be an online forum, where you can post
information and allow you to edit or add to it. However, the wiki should be monitored to be sure
that no inappropriate language, spam, an inaccurate or misrepresented content is used. Any
problem encountered by this software would always allow the wiki administrator to edit.
When your wiki is created, it defaults to the protected setting that allows only people
who have a wikispace account to edit your page. When anyone who is not a member tried to edit
your page, they will be notified that you first have to approve them as a member. This way, any
time anyone edits your wiki, you will know who they are (or at least their wiki identify).
Educators and teachers are using Wikis as an effective teaching and learning tool to
enhance the learning process.

What is It
Here are the Top tips for using Wiki in the Classroom
1. Set Clear Expectations – Before setting wiki guidelines and sharing them with your students,
consult your school`s policies on social media. Provide students with written
guidelines that must be adhered to. Let student know that if they publish
inappropriate content, there will be consequences.
2. Start Small – Take baby steps. Everyone will benefit from gradually increasing wiki use in
the classroom. By starting small, teachers can stay on top of monitoring
classroom wiki, thus remaining in control.
3. Ask for Help – Although wiki is fairly easy to use, there are times when you`ll run into
stumbling blocks. Ask for help when you don`t understand something. You`d
be surprised at how do your students and colleagues might know about wiki.
4. Read other Wikis – As a class and individually, explore other classroom wikis. This will
give you ideas and inspirations for your own wiki pages.
5. Let Wiki Work for You – Wiki is more than just a learning tool for students; it`s a
communication tool for teachers. Use Wiki to keep parents informed and
post assignments and other class related content.
6. School-wide Wikis – Use wikis to showcase field trips, class events and school-wide events,
such as the prom or last week`s football game.
7. Pinterest – This site has a wealth of information on wiki for the classroom.
8. Collaborate – Do lots and lots of group work. Create assignments that require students to
work together, continuously communicating as part of team as they would in the real world.
For example, a media class can work in teams to create an advertisement for a product of their
choice that involves print and/or video. For science class, have students work together as a
research team investigating the sudden drop in the local wolf population.
