Evaluation of an Educational Wiki __ Who Designed the Wiki? __  The website is designed by Jeri Hurd. __ Who is the wiki for? __  This wiki is for the Film Study students of Jeri Hurd. __ What is the purpose of the wiki? __  The purpose of the wiki is to give many tips and tools for students to be successful in the class. __ What subject is the wiki for? __  Film Study __ What are the main contents included? __  There are multiple links for students to check out. Also, there are many handouts that deal with the individual unit that the student is working on. There are also resources for students on how to cite images, which type of images can be used, different types of video software. __ How do participants contribute to the wiki? __  To me, this is unclear. I can’t tell if the students have put this website together, as in each student submitted links that they found valuable. The other main argument is that this site was created by the teacher, as a resource guide for students on everything they will need in the classroom. __ Do you think the wiki serves its purpose well or not? Explain. __  I think the wiki is great. There is so much information there. It’s a little difficult to easily find what you’re looking for, but the navigation is easy enough. I would prefer that every “topic” had its own page, instead of everything being on the first page. But there are great resources listed for students to access. __ Report a thing or two you like or dislike about the wiki __ One thing that I really like, is the amount of information that is on the wiki. It seems like if you really used this page to its maximum, there is no way you would not be successful in the class. One thing that I didn’t like is that there was too much information on one page. It would be easier to navigate if all of the sections had a separate page, instead of everything being on the “home” page. __ Link __ []
