What's a wiki?
The term wiki is a shortened version of the term wiki wiki (weekie, weekie), a Hawaiian phrase used as an adjective to denote something "quick" or "fast". A wiki is a website that allows users to easily add, remove, and edit content, very quickly and easily.

Why wiki?
Using wikis provide a central site where you and your students can:
 * Collaborate like crazy
 * Track all the changes that are made to each page - you can even see who changed the page and what was changed
 * Communicate with one another using the discussion forum
 * Email anyone in the wiki using the wiki's email tool

What are wikis used for?
You and your students can design and develop
 * a list of content resources
 * study guides
 * listings of definitions
 * literature circles
 * group projects and collaboration
