I just finished writing my wiki responses for this week and felt that I had to share how much I like the program. I feel like wiki is a forum where we, as a class, are able to more freely and openly let our minds wonder on generally guided discussion questions. I really like some of the comments that I get to read on the page and find them helpful and insightful in my thoughts on our readings. Unlike in class, where we only have a limited amount of time to talk and can easily get sidetracked into one particular view on a large issue, wiki allows everyone to get their comments down in one place where they don't have to worry about feeling pressured in class or worried about what others might initially think about their comments.
I will definitely be trying to use wiki or other sites similar to wiki in my future classroom teachings.
