Abstract
Wikis offer possibilities for education within Web-based environments. Some learning activities include collaborative work, hypermedia writing, information searching and analysis. In this paper, we present some experiences of using Wikis as a platform to support learning activities. We explore some uses and practical issues from an educational technology standpoint. Finally, we discuss the Wiki model by taking into account e-learning standards.
