Wiki – a Widget or a Tool: Module One

What are the 3 things I learned in Module One?

1. I learned from the Buhagiar article the six uses of assessment.

2. Wikis are a tool that can be used for assessment.

3. An instructional sequence model to encourage me to incorporate an approach to teaching that fosters transfer, meaning, and acquisition.

What are 2 things that interested me in Module One that I would like to learn more about?

1. I am curious if the six uses of assessment that Buhagiar discussed are a standard or if this list is dynamic and if so, which of the assessment uses on the list are most in danger of becoming obsolete and what potential uses could be replacing them?

2. Whereas I can see how Wikis could be used like Discussion, as a document that students create to be assessed, I am unsure how the Wiki itself could be a tool for assessment and I am curious to expand my view of a Wiki’s use.

What is 1 question I still have?

How many countries are actually available in the pool to choose from for the Icebreaker exercise?
