Re: A Glorified Whiteboard

Amy Standen, in her article, points out the importance of trust in developing (or should I say setting up) a wiki. It seems as though setting up the wiki with some degree of structure is important to help focus the participants. I imagine that this is particularly important with students who are in required courses that they might not be fired up about.
I was thrilled to learn that the participation is "trackable" so we can see who is contributing and who is "leeching."

  1. I like the idea of providing a structure for participation in your wiki. Not only would it help to control the input, but I think the users will benefit from the guidlines and be able to provide more valuable input.
