Week 5
1. Given that I have a Kindergarten classroom, I think that using a wiki with my students will not be easy but I can see that perhaps I could have a wiki to use with parents of students to post calendars of Kindergarten events. I do think, however, that this is a lot of trouble for posting a calendar!
2.A wiki and a blog are both tools for sharing information and both give opportunities for the reader to respond. It seems to me that a wiki is a better tool to use when it is necessary to involve certain people (as on a committee) and feedback from those people is easier since the information, or document can be turned into a working document and then changes can be made very quickly and easily. Also it is nice to have a history of all the revisions on the wiki.
3. I am open to any suggestions on how to use a wiki in a kindergarten classroom!! This is something that perhaps could be used but not until the second semester! Any ideas?
