Chapter 4
I have been hesitant about actually using something like a blog or a wiki with my students. And even though I don’t think I’ll be brave enough to blog, I am starting to think that a wiki could be do-able with my students. I like what was mentioned about Jot Spot, how it is password protected but still easily edited. I plan to try this with one class, probably my lone biology class. I want to see how they respond before I try this new stuff with all my students. Do you think it would be good to give the class some flexibility about what we do our first wiki about, or should it be more structured? Most of the students in my biology class will be students that did not pass biology last year—so they should be somewhat familiar with the content already.

Maybe the addition of the blog in that setting would be a new motivational tool for students to interact with the content and with each other. It sounds like they will need some motivation, if most have failed the course before.
