7.2.4 Reflect on collaborative writing in a wiki
A Wiki is an application software designed to help people involved in a common task to achieve their goals. So it is a collaborative software.
The use of collaborative software in the learning space creates a collaborative working environment which enable learners to share views and ideas collectively. One of the hazard of the traditional teaching is the fact that it does not accommodate group work. The teacher just lecture, give notes, and that is all.
The process of collaborating on a wiki can be improved when the members work at real time at least once in a while for effectiveness. Other wise its a perfect collaborative tool for learners.
The most important learning gained from this design group is intentional group process done collaboratively with a broad concept that overlap considerably with computer supported cooperative work.

It is not news that were there is some thing new people start to compare, criticize, supplement and giving negative/positive comments. So it is important to create awareness of the up coming development, organize different workshops and seminars involve learners, teacher and stakeholders. This can help the entire school and the community to back the new development since the are now a ware of its impotence. It can also be easy for the school to ask some assistance from the community, after knowing the benefits from the projects.

I have to create small groups for their collaboration, I have to introduce some technology aided devices for the learners to refer to. For the start i thing that can help them to start fitting in this technology dominated world.
