Here's my questions for week 6! I just realized they didn't make it up here!
1.) The Desilets, Paquet, and Vinson article concludes, “wiki[s] are indeed usable by non-technical users.” How can we get over the stigma that has been associated with Wikipedia and the unreliability of information found in wikis in order to implement Wikis in business and industry?
2.) The Kajder and Bull gives a good example of blogs being used effectively in the classroom. Nardi, Schiano, and Gumbrecht discuss blogging as a social activity: “Our research leads us to speculate that blogging is as much about reading as writing, as much about listening as talking.” My question has been coming up quite often. How do we evaluate the effectiveness of technological tools in the classroom or industry? Can we simply evaluate people’s opinions on their effectiveness or do we have to develop a means for evaluation outside of people’s opinions?
