Chapter Four: Wiki Spaces

I would use a wiki space for the project of students at two first nations’ schools in New Brunswick and British Columbia recording and sharing native stories and music. For creating a novel study with author participation, I think a wiki would work best. With the wiki spaces everyone has a chance to be an author and have a say in the project, there is a lot of room for collaboration. The students can upload their recordings, videos, and music onto the wiki spaces, and be able to share these with other students. Also with a wiki space, you can always have a blog linked to the space as well, in which everyone can have a chance to make and share their own comments. I think a blog would probably suffice for keeping a daily science journal or creative writing with peer review. The students can personalize their own blogs and have the freedom to write whatever they want, and with the comment application the children can leave their peer reviews on that.
