Moodle's wiki

 * **Safety**. The Moodle LMS provides a wiki that is only available to course participants. Unlike blogs, many wiki do not have a way of subscibing to all changes that occur. I am concerned about inappropriate content as even year 12 students can be silly.
 * The wiki **content automatically links to other elements of the course** - for example if a page called 'computer' is created, all instances of the word computer through out the course will have a hyperlink to that page.
 * Participants can not subscibe to pages and so can not be notified of any changes.
 * Example - [|2005 Information Technology Studies class wiki]

Activities

 * Glossary - each student given different terms to prepare. (acronym buster)
 * Collection of resources/links on a topic
 * Group projects - eg [|Bill Kerr's year 11 gamemaking].I have written a progress report 5 weeks after the commencement of the student wikis (Bill June6)
 * FAQ
 * Track and document projects
 * Developing position papers
 * Creating a class story - make an adventure story
 * Brain storming
 * //any other ideas//
