A review of how wikis are used to foster collaboration 6. Annotated ReviewIntroduction o The Digital Disconnect (Engstrom & Jewett, 2005). o New models of education (Learning for the 21st Century, 2002)Education in the Age of Technology o Finding a place in the global marketplace (Good, 2008) Addressing the gap between how students live and how theylearn (Partnership for 21st Century, 2002) o Ability to comprehend and utilize a variety of media (Ash, 2011) Digital literacy through Web 2.0 (Partnership for 21st Century,2002) Internet usage shifting from omnidirectional tomultidirectional (Good, 2008) Key is finding ways to support students appropriately (Pifarre& Staarman, 2010) 7. Annotated Reviewo Teacher attitudes and beliefs Add technology and stir mentality (Good, 2008) Technology not being widely integrated into the curriculum across grade levels (Good, 2008) Teacher attitudes and beliefs as impediments (Capo, 2011) Adequate training an issue (Capo, 2011).o Increased technology usage fosters improved student attitudes andself-concepts (Good, 2008) Students enjoy working on computers and are more motivated to complete activities (Good, 2008) Social Web 2.0 tools give students chance to express their views (Hazari, North, & Moreland, 2009) Social technologies mirror the social networking sites they use all the time in their lives outside of school (Gibbons, 2010) Using real-world examples helps students understand and retain more when their learning is relevant, engaging, and meaningful to their lives (Partnership for 21st Century, 2002) 8. Annotated Review o Students more digitally connected than parents and educators Sites like Facebook offer schools access to graduates and parents(Roe, 2011) School clubs and organizations use Facebook and Twitter (Roe,2011 o One-to-One Computing Increases individualized learning Students report higher levels of satisfaction with schooltechnology (Oliver and Corn, 2008) Collaborate on tasks more often (Oliver and Corn, 2008) Generate original internet content (Oliver and Corn, 2008)Fostering Collaboration with Wikis o Wiki characteristics Allow for individuals to edit content and control changes (Wei-Tsong & Zu-Hao, 2011; Engstrom & Jewett, 2005) 9. Annotated Review Allow administrators to determine security levels for all members (Wei-Tsong & Zu-Hao, 2011 Allow for linked content and pages (Wei-Tsong & Zu-Hao, 2011; Pifare & Staarman, 2011)o Sharing knowledge and building communities Wiki community consists of many interactions among its members, who work to create benefits for the group (Wei- Tsong & Zu-Hao, 2011) Communal nature encourages individuals to collaborate and share knowledge Provide users with space to store documents, images, and presentations (Wei-Tsong & Zu-Hao, 2011) Wikis provide students with the ability to effectively manage larger quantities of information (Raman & Olfman, 2005 10. Annotated Reviewo Collaborative nature of the wiki design Dynamic nature allows them to be updated from anywherewithout prior knowledge of a programming language (Carter,2009) Creates space for students to develop relationships in whichthey expected challenges and alternatives (Pifarre andStaarman, 2010) In collaborative writing projects educators felt the lack ofstructure and the social nature of the project helped studentsbring meaning to the assignment (Tharp, 2010) Community-building potential ideal for a variety ofcollaborative activities (Moreillon, Hunt & Ewing, 2009) 11. Annotated Reviewo Wiki environment addresses major theories of learning (Hazari,North, & Moreland, 2009) Engagement theorySpecific to technology-based teachingOffers a conceptual framework that encouragescollaboration and student engagementMain components have been shown to increase studentmotivationWikis provide students with opportunities for problemsolving in a group environment ConstructivismInquiry-based learning in which students constructpersonal meaning and interpretations of new materialsbased on prior knowledge and learning. Wiki applications provide students with means of makingcritical connections 12. Annotated ReviewSummary o Era of technology saturation o Literature supports the idea that wikis foster collaboration in the classroom (Good, 2008) 13. ReferencesAsh, K. (2011).

Research OutlineResearch Design: My research will utilize a causal-comparative research. I will select two groups thatdiffer on the variable of classroom wiki usage andcompare them in terms of their feelings of classroomengagement.Hypothesis: I would test the hypothesis that studentswho use a class wiki feel more actively engaged in theclassroom than those students who do not use a classwiki. 17. Research OutlineSampling I will select participants based on the teacherswillingness to participate. My experimental group will be those studentswho are in a class in which the teacher utilizes aclass wiki. My control group will be those students who arein classrooms without a class wiki. Comparing at least five classes from my controland five from my experimental group shouldyield more accurate results than just comparingtwo classes. 18. Research OutlineData Collection I will utilize a survey to test the studentsfeelings of engagement which will askthem to identify the number of times overthe course of a week of instruction theyaccess the wiki (for the experimentalgroup) and their general feelings ofengagement in the classroom. I will also survey the teachers as to theirown perceptions of student engagement. 19. Research OutlineAnalysis I will analyze the data to compare the twogroups. It will be important for me to isolatestudents into homogenous groups.For example, I believe grouping students byaverage GPA might work to ensure that myresults are not skewed because students whoseteacher utilize a class wiki might already beplaced in honors of Advanced Placement andmight, therefore, already tend to be moreengaged in class.
