Subscribe to PostsWiki and Moodle design
Using your CSU Interact wiki or other wiki experience and
your short experience as a Moodle member, answer the following:
b. What features do wiki and Moodle have in common and what are the differences (eg a Wiki, Forum and blogtool is also groupware design feature inside a Moodle site) ?
b. Both Moodles and Wikis are examples of Web 2.0 technology used for learning. Moodle is a CMS - Course Management System - and is designed to encompass many tools and features catering for differing learning needs and styles of users along with flexibility in course delivery and structure. For education, Moodles are probably geared toward secondary and post secondary learners as they offer real-time communication such as chat - a difficult tool to monitor in younger students. Moodle is an open-source project, so the source code can be changed by any programmer to create new features, resulting in many ways to customize its desktop and resulting in constant evolution.
Wiki is a tool designed to provide opportunity for students to collaboratively learn in an asynchronous environment. A document (i.e., Article) in a wiki can be created or edited at anytime by anyone, they are editable through a web browser, and a user needs no other web application, database skills, or authoring expertise. This makes it suitable for a wider range of learning ages. The editing tool in a Wiki is a familiar WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get - editing system, turning a webpage easily into an editable document. Often used as “standalone” software, Wikis are also offered as a tool within the Moodle CMS.
