Paper Abstract:
|
Wikis as emerging Web 2.0 technologies offer new possibilities for teacher educators to collaborate around joint writing tasks. Three basic elements are of crucial importance for wiki-based collaborative writing in teacher education: the content of the writing task, the wiki functionality for designing the content, and group work to perform collaborative writing. Based on these considerations, the main purpose of this paper is to assess students experiences of wiki-based collaborative writing in teacher education. The work also critically discusses factors that prevent students from collaborating. Finally, the article concludes with some recommendations for successful wiki-based collaborative writing in teacher education. |
