Assignment #16 Wikis

As the text explains, a wiki permits a large group of people to take part in creating and editing a website. However, wikis that are open to everyone can have problems with scammers and people vandalizing entries. Students can use wikis as a space for quick and easy collaborative work. Libraries can use wikis to provide patrons with more information on specific items, such as, subject guides and book reviews. This is another very useful tool that students with group projects should find extremely helpful.
