Thinking about our experience with wikis

Hello everybody!

This time I tried to cope with wikis in order to understand how do they work and try to contribute to them later.

So, I, Chiara and Alice looked for a page on Edutech wiki to edit: we chose the one about e-tivities and started working on it to add something more information thanks to the experience we made during our course and to some articles on the argument that we found in the internet. We finally were able to add some more information, partly because the page on e-tivities presented nothing but a little explanation (only three lines of text) about what e-tivities are.

Thanks to this task, I understood how using and to contributing on wikis can be easy, because you simply have to click on the "edit" icon and add your contribution. Since every surfer of the net can read what you wrote on the page you edited, it is possible that your contribution could be useful for someone else's work!

More in general, thanks to this experience, I understood that wikis are very useful instruments and that they are very easy to use . Edutech wiki, in particular, is very interesting because you can find information about technical tools for education and also personal comments left by other people about these tools.

See you soon,
Marco
