A wiki comes from the Hawaiian word for "quick" and, as Wikipedia defines it, is "a website whose users can add, modify, or delete its content via a Web browser using a simplified markup language or a rich-text editor." That means it's created by both experts and amateurs, but it also means it has the knowledge and input of literally thousands of contributors.
Which tool to use?
For this workshop we are going to use wikispaces to create a classroom wiki. This website has been used in the creation of the current wiki TechatBISJ. Wikispaces can be used for businesses, entertainment, personal,...and for education. So our focus will be on creating wikispaces in the classroom
