Wiki Reflection Blog

What was my contribution? What I contributed to the Wiki was by adding my portion of the assignment that was required.  At first I really did not know what a wiki was, therefore I went to the website: http://wiki.org/wiki.cgi?WhatIsWiki, from my findings, Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslink’s between internal pages on the fly. Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself. How did working on the wiki contribute to or to hinder my learning or knowledge development? Working on the wiki, explained my knowledge about websites and on how group communication to edit the content itself. In the Wiki, I was a part of the creation of the content, where I was able to change and create new pages in the wiki.  How did working on the wiki contribute to or to hinder my attitude toward the subject matter? Working on the wiki, broaden my knowledge of design, crating and editing on the Wiki. The first page, which is the front page, was very odd, looking at it, therefore, as the journey of learning resumed, it became of interest and I want to learn more about the wiki. How did working on the wiki contribute to or hinder my ability to perform in my future career (i.e. skill development)? From working on the wiki, gives me much interest as become future students. I will allow my students to us the wiki itself to create pages and join in communications with other groups. How did working on the wiki contribute or hinder my sense of reciprocity and cooperation among students in my class? At this time, I am not currently a teacher, but I really believe it will be very beneficial to my future students.
