Wikis vs Blogs

Today I delivered a PD on the use of Wikis and Blogs titled Wikis vs Blogs. I got the idea from a youtube video of the same title. The idea was to create a debate similar to the video – but with staff participating in groups.

Because of the small number of participants in this PD I decided to create and deliver a short presentation instead.

Prior to the presentation staff completed a Venn Diagram comparing their understandings of wikis and blogs.
