What is a Blog? Short for "Web Log," this term refers to a list of journal entries posted on a Web page. Anybody who knows how to create and publish a Web page can publish their own blog for others to read or comment. Some Web hosts have made it even easier by creating an interface where users can simply type a text entry and hit "publish" to publish their blog. From TechTerms.com Others can comment I’m the blogger.

What is a Wiki? A wiki is a Web site that allows users to add and update content on the site using their own Web browser. This is made possible by Wiki software that runs on the Web server. Wikis end up being created mainly by a collaborative effort of the site visitors. From TechTerms.com We work together on our wiki.

What are the best instructional uses of Wikis? Group assignments and collaborative research Group authoring and project development

Examples of Student Wikis This wiki served as our wiki pilot last year. Note that the students each have a page and post their work. They also leave comments on other student pages. Visit Blog Project and Credible sources for other examples of using and evaluating technology resources. – Student editors and critics build a periodic table. Teacher has well constructed directions.
