There are many more links of course, according to Google about 2000 links for 146 selected pages (you can't get more statistics). Most links are either junk pages (e.g. random crap put together by indexing engines living off google ads) or links in sideboxes (e.g. blog rolls) that show up multiple times. As of dec 2007, there are probably about 1000 meaningful links, but that's a real rough guess.

Introduction

This Wiki is now almost 2 years old and links appear in other's webpages. This is a first quick attempt to identify some traces about edutechwiki. Need to add things ... - Daniel K. Schneider 15:42, 8 December 2007 (MET).

There are many more links of course, according to Google about 2000 links for 146 selected pages (you can't get more statistics). Most links are either junk pages (e.g. random crap put together by indexing engines living off google ads) or links in sideboxes (e.g. blog rolls) that show up multiple times. As of dec 2007, there are probably about 1000 meaningful links, but that's a real rough guess.

There are more links. Also, since the (regretful) emergence of e-learning platforms in higher education, one can't see most class syllabi anymore ...

About learning experiences using this wiki

For the moment (dec 2007) only two classes have been using this wiki for writing.

Sarah Guth's class

  • Guth, Sarah (2007). Wikis in Education: Is Public Better?, WikiSym' 07 October 21-23, 2007, Montréal, Québec, Canada. PDF
  • Sarah Guth (2007). Wikis in Education: Public, Semi-Public, or Private - Which Is Best?, Online Educa Berlin News Portal, 13th International Conference on Technology Supported Learning and Tutoring. - “From an affective point of view, students generally expressed a preference for the more protected environment of the semi-public wiki. However, not only did their performance improve on the public one, but they, too, came to understand the benefits of a large user-base and writing for a worldwide community of users. One student saw writing on the semi-public wiki as good preparation for EduTech: "It made me think of the driving lessons one takes before getting a driving license"”.
Student views (some)
  • Buzz, Erica (2007). EduTech Wiki, The Blogsphere and I (blog). “[...] contributing to EduTech Wiki is a good way to make students more responsible and aware of what they are writing. Here anyone can access the pages and contribute to them, while last semester this didn't happen. Writing for a public audience helps us improving our languages, our style and- as in this case- our content (in the sense that maybe we are more careful in looking for sources, links, information and in deciding which of them are more reliable than the other ones).”
