There and Back Again: From Research Methods to Principles of Learning, and Everything in Between: Consolidated Knowledge Using the Course Wiki
Hogendoorn, Adrian
Canadian Journal of Action Research, v18 n3 p64-71 2017
A course wiki is an active environment in which students not only solve problems, but also find their own problems (Bransford, Brown, & Cocking, 1999). Wikis are novel, immersive environments requiring active participation, which enable students to build knowledge within a secure online setting (Hadjerrouit, 2011). This contribution traces a graduate student's journey through a Master of Education program, using a course wiki as a repository for the knowledge and experiences he has gained over the course of three years. A chronological account of his progress throughout the program is showcased here as a capstone project.
