The second week in Collaboration & Learning in a Virtual Environment has been very interesting. We have read extensively about different types of wikis and their use specifically in an educational environment.
All our reading is being put to good use this week as we are beginning to use some of these virtual tools within the context of this class. This blog, of course, is one tool that will provide students with actual hands on experience in creating and managing a blog. In addition, we are creating a wiki with an specific educational purpose and focus. On this wiki, we will create a learning activity. In addition, we will begin using Twitter as a tool for educational support and discussion, rather than merely a social interface.
In the coming weeks, we will continue to develop the wiki, post updates to this blog, and tweet about our experiences. Check back to see how I am coming along!
