=My thoughts on Wikis in education: = I would use a wiki such as this one to promote books that I have read and enjoyed to my students. I also like the fact that my students could interact by posting their own commentary regarding the books. This is a great way to open up a dialogue with students. An online forum would appeal to students who are either A) too shy to speak up in person B) think they'll seem nerdy if they discuss books with their teacher or C) just really buy into any assignment that is technology based. I have some students who zone out and/or refuse to do many assignments, but when I put a computer in front of them or give them a web based assignment they excel!
