Preparing for Wikis
Readings and activities for WeblogsAndWikis, S 2014Post this week not an essay or conclusions but extracts, quotes, notes, questions for exploring further, frameworks for considering matters further.
Part I
First, a few primers to get a sense of what wikis are and how they work. (The practice at a university is to use Wikipedia to get up to speed on a topic, as you would use a general encyclopedia, but not use the material as a source unless you're writing about Wikipedia itself). Instead, use a more focused source of http://c2.com/ - Portland Pattern Repository's Wiki.- Wikis in Plain English, video at Common Craft - No need to respond to this. It's a primer: background.
- Wikipedia entry on wikis.
- Wide Open Spaces: Wikis Ready or Not, Brian Lamb - No need to respond to this. Like Wikis in Plain English, this article is a primer, an introduction. But you might want to select an extract, a quote, or develop a question or two that can be looked at further.
- Above and Below the DoubleLine. Again, a primer. No need to comment. But take note of the techniques in this article. WikiWriters use them.
