Wikis

The possibilities are endless and the ability to have group input is fantastic. I remember having to do a web page years ago at uni and having to type the format. It was so time consuming.

I think students will love this. Plus they can be as simple or as complicated depending on the students level of ability and still have a great looking end product.

This would be a great tool to 'Create-Relate-Donate'. It could be used for an ongoing research assignment that would enable students to update information as they progress through a subject. They could have a forum page built in to ask questions that their classmates could answer, which I could overview. They could post group work or individual work. I think a wiki would really engage the students to contribute in a meaningful way.
