Creating a wiki reflection

Hi everyone,

Today's topic requires students as teachers to learn an innovating way to interact with children in the classroom. I created a wiki page using PMI (plus, minus and interesting) analysis.


Plus
  • A wiki is a safer environment than a blog
  • It is a private communication area 
  • More than one person can interact at any given time
  • Students and teachers work together to contribute information
  • Accessible anywhere not just at school
  • You can remain anonymous
  • Everyone is entitled to their opinion 
Minus
  • Not everyone has reliable Internet or access to the Internet at home
  • You can delete other people's post by mistake 
  • Time consuming
  • Other people can make changes to your wiki
  • Can be confusing if you have not done it before
Interesting
  • Students can learn from each others content
  • Learn a new collaborative tool
  • Students can work from home
This exercise was difficult as I have never created a wiki before. There are many benefits to the wiki however i will have to wait until I become more proficient before implementing it within a classroom setting. To have a look at my wiki click on the address
