Wiki Evaluation
The relevance of the online collaboration cannot be overstated, especially when it comes to collaborative learning and knowledge sharing. Thanks to numerous contributors, I learnt that online collaboration is one of the most efficient ways of growing individual users' knowledge base around specific subject areas. Online collaboration also creates an environment where we can learn better by providing support to each other via the peer editing tool. To make online collaboration even better, I would create or further enhance the role of editor/moderator in an attempt to ensure that all the posts made fit not only the format but also the goal of the online collaboration effort.
Thanks to the online collaboration, I have appreciated the need for social-based tools in an organizational setting. In such settings, online collaboration would provide a very efficient system for the creation, organization, as well as revision of content.

An example of real life application in an organizational setting: given the technical nature if IT (i.e. with regard to the use of specific software) most employees may need to have their knowledge base in a specified information technology area or topic enhanced. Wikis would be a handy tool in this endeavor. Wikis, according to Wagner and Majchrzac (as cited in Topi and Tucker, 2014) could also be used to interact with vendors, customers, as well as partners. In the words of Jenkins, Ford, and Green (2013, p. 279), "Web 2.0 is a business model through which commercial platforms seek to court and capture the participatory energies of desired markets ... "
Part 2-2 Peer Reviews of Presentations
On reviewing my wiki, I was largely satisfied with what I have done so far. However, I would perhaps see to it that I increase the broadness of my research. I would make use of more resources than I have used so far so as to not only enhance my knowledge of the subject matter, but also amplify/boost both the content and material of my posts. I would also see to it that I…

Although the failures seem un felt, the people behind the making of the software's feel their efforts were futile. Online networking tools affect communication of people in social groups by using social networks. There is a threat as people can communicate with whom they want and falling for fraud is easy. People can create powerful networks that serve other purposes, for example, networks that can solve crimes, or frauds

The general challenge in online education is the failure to embrace the paradigm that online programs are fundamentally different than traditional pedagogy, and must include alternative ways to link learning styles and learning outcomes. Failure to acknowledge the difference and to adjust delivery to meet the delivery medium runs the risk or providing ineffective instruction. The specific problem is that although there is a body of literature addressing online
