#18 Wikis

The comment wikis are websites with an edit button explained wikis best to me.
I have used a few and read many more as I have been working.
In schools it is often a bit tricky to find ones to use that aren't "blocked" - but this is geting better.
My main play with wikis at the moment is working with a group of teachers putting a policy together. We decided to use a wiki so we could see what edits/changes we are making.
Again - the Common Craft video helped introduce us to the world of wikis in a way that makes it so easy to understand
As wikis become more common in Learner Management Systems used in schools (eg Moodle) their potential for engaging students in their learning will grow.
My aim now is to set up a wiki with the library staff I work with and then add one to our website for comments etc about the library
