Session 5: Wikis
At first I couldn't understand how a wiki would be useful if several people are editing and updating what is being posted to a website. Now I understand how it can be used when you want to collaborate with a group of people in a quick way. You just need to TRUST the others in the group because you can't be sure that their posting is necessarily truth. Where you can personally control your own blog, you have to let go and trust your collaborative partners with a wiki. It can be very useful for teachers or librarians who are lesson planning together if several people are involved.

Ahoha!
Wikis will be so much fun when trying to get a response from an entire grade level. I can get my answers wiki wiki! ;o)
I agree that a wiki could be very useful for teacher or librarian collaboration. You make a good point about TRUST. Hopefully your PLC has developed enough trust to enable you to use a wiki effectively.
