A wiki is a website that allows collaborative editing of its content and structure by its users. It serves as a centralized location for communication and file sharing for a group, such as students in a class. Wikis provide benefits like not requiring technical expertise to contribute, housing all class materials and assignments in one place, and enabling more open communication between students and parents. The author's personal wiki will be regularly updated with new assignments and include weekly video responses from students.
