 * What is a wiki?** A wiki is a webpage with an edit button, which can be updated by multiple users.
 * How can we use wikis in the classroom/community?**
 * Students can work collaboratively on group projects online
 * Students are motivated to write for a real audience
 * In place of digital portfolios but making the experience in 'real time' and with the possibility of involving the whole community
 * Conference with students on their drafts - all revisions to a page are tracked in the history
 * Discussion forums - initiate online discussions in online forums with our students
 * Use it as a website for your class / year level / school that you can easily update yourself
 * Make your wiki public (anyone can access) or private (preferable - only members can access with a username and password)
 * Post topic-specific weblinks for your students to access, to save them time in typing out URLs or Google searching
 * Put handouts and newsletters online for students / parents to access from school or from home
 * Showcase student work online in the form of digital images (can be photos of student work), Word documents, Powerpoint presentations, digital movies or digital audio recordings - a great motivator - its time to explore podcasts etc...
 * Invite another class (or community group) to join our wiki and work collaboratively with us - at our school, a nearby school or a sister school overseas!
