Welcome to EduTechWiki

EduTechWiki is about Educational Technology (instructional technology) and related fields. It is hosted by TECFA - an educational technology research and teaching unit at University of Geneva. This wiki is a resource kit for educational technology teaching and research, e.g. a note taking tool for researchers; a literature review tool or a writing-to-learn environment for students. Finally, we started working on tutorials that may be used in classes around the world or for self-learning.

Many articles can also be useful to teachers, instructional designers and e-learning consultants. Read more about our objectives.

This wiki contains 1,965 articles. The french version has less and different contents. Send questions to Daniel K. Schneider (he "owns" this wiki and is to blame for most contents). Other major contributors are/were Kalli Benetos, Marielle Lange, Stéphane Lattion. We also get help from people out of cyberspace, thanx to you all !

If you find this wiki useful, please let us know in the Guest Book (no registration required).

Status and authoring guidelines

For DKS, this Wiki started out as note taking and "mapping out" tool but it became a long term project: Most articles still lack content, depth, style, authority or all four together and will be improved over the years. We also started using this wiki as an e-learning platform, including some content development. Other university teachers may bring classes to EduTechWiki for writing activities (please read this if you plan so).

  • Anybody is welcome to participate, but please read the editing rules and the copyright notice. You may sign your contributions and express opinions. This is not Wikipedia. We also very much appreciate people fixing little mistakes (spelling, grammar, references,...) !
