Video: Six Wiki Uses in Research, Teaching, and Projects

Download from iTunes

This video is from a recent workshop on wikis at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, CT. Wikis are the future of classroom and research collaboration, so improving adoption and effective use in teaching and research is key to realizing benefits such as:

  • Classroom – participatory, collaborative learning that better reflects how people work in organizations today, and better prepares students for their careers.
  • Curriculum – more frequently refined and updated curriculum materials that keep up with growing knowledge and keep students interested.
  • Research – more streamlined research from data gathering and project management to collaborative authoring and journal publication.

    I’m listening to the video: Six Wiki Uses in Research, Teaching, and Projects and find it quite informative.

    However, although I can see the speaker, that is ALL I can see. No shots are of what persons in the room are seeing on the slides. Therefore, a lot of the information is not as “comprehensible.”

    Does any video of this presentation show the slides being discussed?
