My name is Dewey Bayer and I am a psychology professor at a small liberal arts college who became aware of wikis in the spring of 2004. Since then I have tried to find ways to use them in my courses and work with students. Wikka has many very nice features that make it ideal in a college setting. I thought a page where professors could share ideas would be nice to have.

Over the next several weeks (through April and May) I'll add material on how I use a wiki in my courses. I hope others will find this page and add their own uses as well as comment on mine. Stay tuned. If you think this kind of page is a good (or bad) idea, please comment.

one hour later Ha! in the time it took me to do some things to get my first example together, Mike Bowen left a comment (below). Thanks, Mike! I look forward to more contact.

My first example is for a team of students working on a research project. You can find the example on a fictitious page on my teaching wiki. Here's the Link

My second example is an organizational one, where students enrolled in internship/practicum experiences at different sites in the community maintain wiki pages to keep diaries. Once a week they update their pages with information on what they did onsite that week. Their pages are categorized under a master page and kept on the wiki for future students to get some sense of what practicum experiences at different sites are like. Here is a link to one of the master pages. Your comments are appreciated.
