Rationale: Wikis used in education can foster and facilitate collaboration among learners. With geographically distributed learner populations working in different time zones and different shifts, an asynchronous method for collaborative learning is essential. Wikis can be used to disseminate learning resources and provide links to other resources, such as emerging clinical practices. Students can use wikis to share learning experiences. A class project may include compilation of one or more wiki books. (A wiki book, logically, is a collection of writings (documents) brought together by one or more writers for a specific purpose.) A wiki may serve as content-management system for one online course or an entire program, such as a MSN-degree program).
