WIKI 💜

Hello :)

Let's talk about wiki :)

What is WIKI?

Wiki is a web technology used for collaborative publishing on the web. Wiki is a type of server software that allows you to work with data on a remote server on the Web. Users interact with the software through a web interface that lets them read, edit and publish content.

WIKI is used for collaborative publishing. A group of co-authors can freely add and change the content of the wiki website: rewrite texts, add new texts and images, add and link pages and more. 

Also, WIKI can be used in the education system. For example, students may be asked to create a page where they can place your photo and some information about yourself. A student's page can contain a photo, bio information, hobbies, a list of interests, links to favorite websites. Then they can begin to implement more complex tasks, for example, to work on collaborative research projects. Today I met with WIKIVERSITY and tell you about it a little.

Wikiversity is a Wikimedia Foundation project devoted to learning resources, learning projects, and research for use in all levels, types, and styles of education from pre-school to university, including professional training and informal learning.
In Wikiversity, you can find learning materials of all types to use yourself as self-study materials. If you are interested in learning about a subject, browse our content to see if there is anything that suits your needs. It would also be helpful if you comment on the materials you use, so that we can continually improve our resources.
Also, if you want to meet other people who are interested in your subject, you may want to join a learning community devoted to that subject (or help create one if one doesn't yet exist). You may find someone there who can help you with your learning, or you may want to help someone else with what you already know (or have just found out).

The site has fairly friendly interface.

Wikiversity for teaching

Wikiversity is designed to collect a range of learning materials for various uses. These materials are designed, not just for self-study, but also as material which can be used in your classroom.

As Wikiversity is a work in progress, there is always content that can be added.

Thus, a living resource is created that will be useful  to teachers, not only in their classrooms, but also as somewhere to improve teaching practice through sharing materials and experiences.

I think the service will be  useful both  for teachers than for students. This is a good opportunity to discover something new, get excited, learn and share your experience.
