Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the application of collaborative writing platform-wiki into college classroom. Specifically, this study is interested in two main questions: 1) How to better regulate the team collaborative writing in order to reach learners’ satisfaction? 2) How to better evaluate the performance of individual team members? Through the survey and the interviews, the author compares two undergraduate classes which have the same subject and instructor but use different strategies to apply wikis to the instruction design and assessment. By using the statistical analysis along with the results from the followed-up interviews, the study intends to provide valuable suggestions for the instructors who are interested in applying wikis efficiently in their classroom.
