Issues ,Trends, Innovations & Research In Instructional Design , Instructional Technology and Distance Education

I really enjoyed teaching this lesson that I designed for the WikiSpaces. I believe that it was really important to learn this skill.The wiki allows for monitoring and I received emails of what pages students viewed and what changes they made.Wiki spaces Classroom enhance Instructional Design, by:
Monitoring the history of student discussions, writing, and file uploads.
Allowing collaborative editing of pages using visual editor.
Embedding content from around the web, including videos, images, polls, documents.
Commenting on sections of text or the entire page.
Creating individual or group assignments.
Monitoring student engagement in real time.
Reporting on contributions to pages, discussions, and comments over time.
In my opinion , the use of Wikis, should be viewed as enabling the technology used to support other instructional media in designing a blended learning solution. Wikis are primarily used as collaborative tools and when integrated into a course or learning module supporting a structured learning environment.
