Proceedings < International Wiki Symposium A. Bruns & S. Humphreys. Abstract: In this paper we trace the evolution of a project using a wiki-based learning environment in a tertiary education setting. Exchange and collaborate about this talk M. Abstract: With few exceptions, currently published research on the educational use of wikis does not include how the learning activities should be “shaped, planned or enforced” in a wiki. Exchange and collaborate about this talk U. Abstract: While measurements of wiki usage typically focus on the active contribution of content, information on the passive use of existing content can be valuable for a range of commercial and research purposes. Meeting these needs requires detailed knowledge of user behavior, such as the duration for which a page was read and the sections visible at each point. Exchange and collaborate about this talk A. Abstract: Writing a book from which others can learn is itself a powerful learning experience. Exchange and collaborate about this talk R. D. S. J. J. R. J.

This three-hour workshop will explore the improvisatory dynamics of practitioner actions in the construction and modification of hypermedia knowledge representations in live settings with groups. A goal of the workshop will be to help us answer the following research questions: in what sense(s) can the practice of this type of digital media in the settings we are analyzing be characterized as "performance," and the work of the practitioner be usefully analyzed in aesthetic and ethical terms?
