Week 4 Initial Reaction

My initial reaction to the assignment was not immediate because I did not fully understand wikis even after all of the reading that I did. It made much more sense today after reading the article by Brian Lamb on the pedagogical purposes of wikis. I really liked that he discussed how it could improve writing skills and colloboration with one's peers. It always helps me when I have solid examples and links where I can look for illustrations to compare and gather my own thoughts and ideas on how to arrange the new information in my schema.
