Managing Content using Wiki Technologies

Michael Daum

In this presentation I will give an overview on the Wiki concepts and technologies and review its value in an academic environment. The NatsWiki itself is online now for nearly four years and has evolved into a unified platform to support lecturing, enable annotated biliographies, coordinate publications, bring together academic communities, and for project management. Last not least every student is able to play an active role by participating in a Wiki collecting additional material during lectures and beyond as well as peer-reviewing contributions of colleagues.
