Actually using a wiki!

The Red River crew began another course on Tuesday and were assigned a group project with an extremely short deadline (5 week course). Our group of 3 faced a dilemma: How do we collaborate on a group project when we are working overtime completing project for two other courses? Answer? Use a wiki. Establish a wiki has allowed us to create all of our documents online and eliminate the need for e-mail one document and the hardship of merging documents to come up with a complete project to turn in for a grade. With the wiki, all members of the group can look at all parts of the project and add their two cents and changes to the document can be tracked. This also enables you to track group participation. What I really like though is this eliminates the need to print out documents. I like being able to send an instructor a URL and saying here is my work. I think I'm going to like this wiki thing after all.
