Wikis and Blogs: Applications for Educational Environments Nina McHale Assistant Professor/Web Librarian Auraria Library

Wikis and Blogs: What are they? Websites that allow readers/users to contribute content Based on open source software that makes creating and maintaining a web page easy and often free Quick, easy, and fun to create and maintain!

Quick Definitions: Wiki What’s a wiki? Wikipedia says: –“A wiki is software that allows users to create, edit, and link web pages easily. Wikis are often used to create collaborative and to power community websites. These wiki websites are often also referred to as wikis; for example, Wikipedia is often considered one of the best known wikis.” –“Wiki wiki”: Hawaiian for “fast”

Quick Definitions: Blog What’s a blog? Wikipedia says: –“A blog is a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.” –“Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs.” Short for web log

What’s the difference? Wiki=collaborative –Good for collaborative projects –Users create/alter main content –Like a white board Blog=chronological –Better for any time-sensitive content –Users add comments to main content –Like the bathroom wall
