Mobile Wiki

 The mobile phone wiki was to date my first encounter with a wiki. I cast my thoughts and opinions on whether mobile phones should be incorporated into today's classrooms. De Bono's thinking hats were used to assist our thinking. I used the white hat (objective) to share my opinion.
REFLECTION: The wiki is an excellent way to interact with fellow students. As this was my first time using a wiki, I found it suprisingly easy to share my opinion, and then read what fellow students had to say. I believe this is an example of the learning style connectivism. It allows people who cannot talk face to face, to connect with each other and share opinions and thought on various topics.Personally I believe the wiki tool would come in handy for students who may have a group assignment or are learning collaboratively. The main downfall being any member can edit the page, this can lead to accidentally deleting information.

 I came across this video of Dr Edward De Bono discussing his six thinking hats method.
