Now that I have found the Wiki, I can't image doing group work any other way. This is great for people that may not be able to get together face to face my much or at all!
It is wonderful to be able to share information, edit and put together group presentations this way. This way, you can put together a presentation in its entirety and present the presentation without being present. This is a whole new way of connecting people; world-wide.
A Wiki could be used in the classroom to work on projects with students from schools from around the world. One such project could be tracking global warming; in which each school does the research about their area and changes over time and all of the information is compiled on the Wiki for presentations. Presentations could be made to the community and Legislators alike.
This blog explores the pros and cons of technology. It looks at how technology influences our world; most importantly education. It also shares examples of technology through websites and programs that viewers may explore.

I felt the same when when I first started using wikis. It's nice to be able to see recent wiki activity as well. As a teacher, I could see if certain group members weren't pulling their weight.
