4/1 Wikis

1. How can a wiki be used in your current classes? (tip: Use the Internet, here is a good source). Be specific to your classes!
2. What are the benefits of using a wiki?
3. How can we create one in this class and utilize it?
4. What experience do you have using or creating wikis?


1. For chemistrry class using wikipedia and its interactive periodic table is one of the best things to use on the internet. The periodic table of elements on that page is very useful because it is constantly being updated with new info because new info comes out every day about each element. Scientists discover new things about each element every day, and Wikipedia with its over 21,000,000 users aqre constantly updating the page so I get the mst recent information about my topic.

2. Wikis provide the most recent information every day about millions of different topics. The 21,000,000 million users are constantly updating and fixing everything on each individual topic. These people use reliable sources and always have their citations under the actual article. Wikis are a great starting point for research.

3. Wikis could be very helpful to use in a class. We could al post our notes onto a wiki so we can collaborate and work togeter to make the perfect notes for us to study and learn the new topics that we get taught each day.

4. I have plenty of experience using wikis, I have used wikipedia for as long as I can remember just because of how helpful and informative it is. I have never created or edited a wiki but I look forward to doing it in the future
