WHY USE WIKIS WITH STUDENTS?
• Let students edit pages online?• They already do it - blogs,
MySpace, Facebook, etc.• It is natural to them, they are
digital natives• They need to do it formally - social
interactions are much different!

WHAT THEY SAID
• Do you feel that using the Internet for this project is "natural" because of the other technologies or web sites you already use socially?

WHAT THEY SAID
• “Yes, I honestly believe that because so many of us are already on the computer a lot anyway, it helps. All I had to do is just take a break from talking to people and write up the pages and link them. I didn't have to go get my backpack or anything.”
