Peter,

I added an empty Wiki page from Tiddlywiki into LAMS Share Resources and it worked quite well. See pictures attached

This could potentially be quite interesting for teachers
that one their student to write down their thoughts while crusing along a sequence. Then the teacher can ask the student (say as the last activity in the sequence) to upload his wiki file. Although nice, this has the drawback that you can't really group a bunch of students and get them to collaborate on an online wiki.

Nevertheless, if you already have a Wiki server happening you can use the Share resources or HTML Noticeboard (in LAMS 1.0.2) to point to the Wiki page you want your students to collaborate.

Let me think about this one as it might not be too hard to create a wiki like page with a few resources. If you have more thoughts, please let me know.

Thanks,

Ernie

You're right -- the single-user aspect isn't really very wiki-ish at all. To be fair, I think the author has positioned it as a microcontent authoring tool with some scope for blogging -- the interface is very cool though. Not sure of a decent use case except maybe serial authorship where students take it in turns to add/edit. Nice to know it works though.

Another possible use in LAMS would be to provide a version of the student notebook for offline use and further annotation. I'm not suggesting that it should be possible to synch the two but, hey, that would be nice too.
