Now, you may be asking yourself...How can this help me!
Here is how it works.
A wiki allows a group of people to see, share and edit information. Tutors in our Learning Center needed a place to be able to quickly find information on their subject area, especially if they were working with someone using SKYPE in realtime online.
I created the wikitutor-resources for tutors by setting up one page per academic subject. Then I had tutors in those subject areas post some of their fav resources. Finally, I invited faculty, staff and all of the tutors to join. The was easily accomplished by using the *management tool* in the wiki program. I simply when to the proper place and typed in email addresses. An invitation to join the wiki was sent within seconds!
Here is the link so that you can view this wiki. You will not be able to add or delete anything because one must be invited in order to do so. Very cool, especially, if you worry about loosing control in the virtual world!
