Wiki Thought
May 10 2007, 11:58 AM EDT Many people added comments to this page when there was no initial content. Then, when the content was added, it appeared as though the comments were in response to the content, when in fact they weren't. On a larger scale, with dynamic content, you have to be especially specific with your comments. If you just comment "I agree." and then the content changes, you've agreed to something completely different. 3 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: Wiki Thought
May 10 2007, 12:20 PM EDT Exactly! you hit it right on the head as far as the use and "correct" form of wikis. That is something that we had actually discussed, people understand the difference between the comment and edit this page feature. Some wikis are set up in tabs, so that it may be more apparent to an inexperienced wiki user. commenting and replying to commenting and no initial content takes the form of a bulletin board vs an actual wiki. i suppose the nature of this actual exercise creates a bulletin board atmosphere. Ideally, I imagine the correct form of a wiki for this exercise would be: 1. The Case Study page would have an explanation of the Case study. 2. Each group would link their "idea" off this orginal case study page. 3. Members within the group would edit their indivual case study page; external users to this group would then use the comment feature for feedback to that group. With this said, there is no "correct" use of a wiki. But, I see your point and agree. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
