Wiki as Collaboration Tool

I had to do a presentation recently with a colleague in my Rutgers class on library management. We could have done a PowerPoint presentation, but since all of our classes are online, this would have necessitated emailing the PPT file back-and-forth as each of us made our contributions to it.

Instead we chose to do a wiki. Each "slide" was done as another page in the wiki. My partner was able to go in anytime and make additions or deletions, and so was I. No need to email a file every time changes were made.

For the actual class presentation, the URL for the wiki & the key were emailed to the rest of the class and instructor. The wiki made for both easy collaboration during its creation, and easy viewing for the rest of the class. Mo messy downloads of files!
