            <title>Class Wiki</title>
            <link>http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=735318</link>
            <description>Free use, instructor run resourceClasswiki is a space for instructors to post instructional and learning resources, but more than that, Classwiki is a real world application, using prevalent wiki technology, facilitating the publication and distribution of information. Any user with a willingness to be involved in this community can create pages, publish material, or improve existing articles on a more or less equal footing. The result is still in it&apos;s infancy, but the ultimate goal is to produce a site where students, staff, and faculty can post information relevant to their work with LCC. User pages can contain personal profiles or detailed resumes/CVs. The class pages can contain most of the information currently on Moodle with a more versatile structure. Students can post, collaborate, and revise material linking it to a user profile and an assignment page. Academic papers can be written in a more vocationally relevant form (i.e. wikitext with diligent internal and external linking to provide source information). Most excitingly, this format provides the opportunity for realistic and practical group collaborative projects wherein all work modifies a single text and all contribution can be easily traced back to an individual contributor. No more riding the coattails or getting stuck with the bag in a group project. All that it needs now is your input, so please, explore, publish, revise, contribute, create.</description>
