Wiki Me

I like these two links because they are focused on business issues, which is where I teach:
http://www.nytimes.com/learning/teachers/lessons/economics.html
http://www.khake.com/page31.html
I also liked this site for its information on a variety of places to create wikis:

I am convinced that I will be developing one of these for one of my classes in the future. The benfits just seem huge to me, now that I am exploring the concept in detail. I am not worried about the negatives of students being able to enter and update entries, and it just seems like a great forum for the interchange of ideas, which is what I think a college class should really be. The key isue is time - not just in developing the wiki lesson plan for a future class, but even answering this very question....
