Education should be a form of amusement... Plato

What is a ? Collaborative website Can add information and files It is a community everyone has a voice Creates opportunities for different levels of participation Independent learning – student-led Voluntary and self-censoring Images: Manny Wilsonwww.webguild.org

Inherently repetitive or tedious material Topics using language that alienates / confuses Conceptually complex areas of learning Topics that stretch learners or take them into unfamiliar territory HARD to Teach

Wiki Objectives Create a student-led environment where they can explore poetry interpretations Use the MSN ‘communication culture’ to engage their interest

start Voluntary Self- censored Self- interest FamiliarityExcitementRhythmEmbedded Result! The Wiki-War Process

Evolved from revision site…

Students’ Thoughts … It makes people who are less talkative finally contribute! I was thinking about things on the wiki when I was doing my exam … Having a wiki war meant you could argue as much as you wanted! It gave me more views to take on when writing my essay. I got an A, surprisingly! It offers a different dimension to revising… Worthwhile ?

I think it should be for everyone as they would gain a vast amount of different interpretations giving us a wider knowledge of the poems…
