to Wiki or not to Wiki

My favorite thing about using the wiki was is the students' ability to collaborate and share their work.  Say, if someone starts their project really early they can continue to change and make it better as they see ideas from other people's pages. It's also a good way to make the project a long-term resource for everyone in the class.
I wouldn't overuse wikis but I think it would be most useful as a posting place for a project or for an ongoing formula sheet. I could assign each chapter to a group of students and that group would make a study guide/ formula sheet to put on the wiki. That way, everyone would contribute to a course study guide that they can reference even after that school year is over.
Next time, I would definitely change my font styles more to show creativity and emphasis. One thing I did do though, that some others did not, was to at least make the post centered.
