Tutorial week 7

Hello everyone,

As we know, blogs and wikis are two popular tools that play important role in our writing. I’m going to discuss how these two technologies help in writing.

Wikis and blogs is an online workspace that allows people to collaboratively create and edit Web pages without requiring HTML knowledge, using no more complicated technology than a Web browser. A blog has the advantage of being a live, shared space where all team members can have editing and writing privileges. Its availability and ease of use make all the group members into active participants. The simplicity of a wiki also make less burdensome for members to give and share their ideas by doing small and spontaneous edits. Wikis also afford us the opportunity to write using nonlinear text structures. For example, we can use hyperlinks in wikis writing to create new links. Besides help to learn collaborative writing skills, wiki also help us to learn effective writing strategies and grammar from others.
