Week 9: Teamwork on Wikis
My first reaction reading the article “Online Collaborative Writing Using Wikis” was curiosity. I had never heard about wikis before, and how useful it can be for ESL learners. Something that I want to remember from this article is the importance and developing that this activity can have in students' lives. These kinds of activities can make students work in groups, to develop writing skills and it facilitates the work team as well as it can use the student’s free time to help them to learn English in a funny and cooperative way.
I think every teacher should know about wikis. In my opinion, Wikis are not too known in our country El Salvador, I think it will be very important that more and more teacher starting to know about this interesting, and helpful tool that can be useful for teachers as well as for ESL learners. Something I would like to share with a colleague is Wikis. This is a good option, and tool that we, as future teachers, can use to make students work in teams, and develop their skills.
A question that I still have is how can we implement this way to teach in Salvadorian classrooms? I think it will be fascinating that activities as Wikis being implemented in Salvadorian teaching programs of colleges and high schools to inculcate the work team and an innovate way to acquire knowledge.- Rate: 5

I agree with you Manuel Aguillon it's a really useful tool that maybe it is not as common in our country because of the lack of internet that could be a reason for not to use it in our country but maybe it is common in countries such as united states or canada. Like you, something that catch my attention was how this website can help English students to practice the language through of internet. Personally, I think that to use these kinds of websites we must do it in computer centers so that students don’t have an excuse that they don’t have an internet connection at their homes I mean we need to provide them the materials. We can use activities such as the lab sections that we did it. and make to know this kind of activities so that teachers can feel curios to try it in their classes. personally, i will try to use it in my following classes. great job Manuel.
