Wikis in Practice at BCIT - Now available for download in BCIT's iTunes U!


How do you get geographically separated students taking a distance course to reflect, share, and build on their collective wisdom and experience? Well, there are lots of ways! Find out how wikis helped with this goal in two Specialty Nursing distance courses. Discover the the "what, why, and how" of wikis, see wikis in action, and find out how you can get started setting up a wiki for your own courses.

A podcast of the recent LTC Lunch 'n' Learn session "Wikis in Practice at BCIT" is now available from BCIT's iTunes U.

Facilitators: Jan Morrison, Pauline O'Reilly, and Kathy Siedlaczek
