Analysis and Reflection
1. When first encountering wiki at the beginning of the course.
 * What do you think/feel about this collaborative learning environment?

I like it, because it give me a chance to see what other people our interested in.
 * What are your expectations for yourself ?

To help others by editing their work. And to work on my own articles over the semester. I have learned how important it is to work throughout the time period. I know how to use the wiki interface and can help to format others articles.
 * If you have previously used wiki in another course, describe what you have previously learned and how you want to expand your understanding.
 * What can you contribute as an experienced participant?

2. Think about the following and answer to the best of your ability: I look for topics I have an interest in, and things I want to know more about. I have no probleem with it, it's almost like having 100 people around to edit an essay. Not really, I think that once it's out there it's out there.
 * How do you choose which postings to contribute or change? What do you look for?
 * What are your thoughts on adding, editing or re-arranging other people's work?
 * Do you regularly check your own postings for alterations? Has anyone changed your work and how have you felt about it

3. As a final reflection for the course, post your thoughts and ideas on: > > >
 * challenges or limitations you experienced while working collaboratively on wiki? I think it's been hard to get started on my classwiki work because I log on to the wiki so much for my group projects that I've kinda grown bored of it over time. It just felt like I was logging on so often for the project, I didn't want to deal with the class wiki on top of that.
 * advantages or benefits from participating in this wiki- It gives you an idea of what other people are gettign out of the course and what they have the mose interest in.
 * things about the course you thought worked well and/or suggested improvements- I think the projects wokred very well on the wikis. It's nice because you don't have to be together to work together. I think this wiki worked out pretty well . The topics are interesting and from reading others articles I have learned a lot.
