The Wiki Way to Assessment
2nd December 2014: 1pm to 2pm
DG10, Bea Orpen Building
Description:
Wikis are online collaborative writing spaces that have multiple authors and contributors. The most well-known wiki is Wikipedia.
They are useful for group projects and assessors can easily see work completed by students as group work progresses. Wikis are said to support and encourage engagement in group work. Changes can be viewed made by different users or rollback to previous versions. This workshop explores the use of wikis for assessment and for collaborative group work with students in higher education. The workshop focus will be on the wiki tool available in Loop.
