What’s wiki?
A wiki is like a pubic website, or public web page, started by one person, but which subsequent visitors can add to, delete or change as they wish.
A wiki is like having a publicly accessible word processing document available online, which anyone can edit.

Trust and security
Wikis are generally designed with the philosophy of making it easy to correct mistakes, rather than making it difficult to make them. Thus, while wikis are very open, they provide a means to verify the validity of recent additions to the body of pages.

Critics of publicly editable wiki systems argue that these systems could be easily tampered with, while proponents argue that the community of users can catch malicious content and correct it.
Trustworthiness

How to start using a wiki with learners
The best way: set up a simple collaborative writing project with a topic that interests all.
A good example is – (in)famous people

Step 1- Preparation before lesson
Approx. 30-60 mins Use a free wiki site, the teacher set up
the first page of a wiki. Outline the topic of the project and the
steps your students will need to take in the project.

Step 2- (In)famous people: description
Approx: 1 hour Put learners in pairs and tell them that
they are going to write a description of a famous person that contains a number of factual error.
You may want to give an example of a description of a famous person with factual errors, which you have already written yourself in the wiki.

Step 3- (In)famous people: Corrections
Approx. 1 hour Allocate one description to each pair
from the previous class The pair reads the description, click on
the Edit tab for the wiki page and corrects any ‘wrong’ information in the description.
