Wiki Definition and Characteristics
Wiki Definition
A wiki is a website that allows the easy creation and editing of any number
of interlinked web pages via a web browser. A whole set of Wiki pages is
called a Wiki library.
Wiki’s are often used among a group of people collaborating on the same
documents (manuals, requirements etc.)
Mention one or more
characteristics of a Wiki.
Use the chat!

Editor's Notes

  • #2 Template usage This template is used as guideline for training the different topics within a course. The template must be used for each new topic. Usage Notes section Use this section to explain all things needed for bulk trainers to conduct the same training as training developers. Explain in short terms the key messages, with if needed explanations, per sheet. Don’t automatically assume everybody knows the same as you know. Use this section also to write down questions you would like to ask, with the correct answers. General guidelines uniformity Header: Times New Roman, 30 , aligned left All topics bullet color red, font Arial 20, Normal All subtopics bullet color blue, font Arial 16, Normal Animation effect: fade in, medium First topic fades in automatically, next topics fade in on mouse click No animation effect between slides. 1: Introduction Page (current page) Right-up”: Spine - &amp;lt;BPA&amp;gt;, font Arial 16, aligned left In Red: Current course, font Times New Roman, 24, aligned left In Yellow: Current case, Arial 18, aligned left 2: Agenda Total agenda of the training.

  • #28 Does this mean that formal learning events disappear? I already answered that question before. Formal learning events like classroom training will always be required. But formal events should not be the only learning processes we should focus on. Consider the information as presented before in a timeline like presented here, and let’s look how we can apply this to the Business Process Area OMDc Consider the situation were we are implementing OneOce in an Opco. For OMDc we have a training called “Fulfilling the OMDc Data Officer role. It’s a formal learning event for employees working in the OMDc area, and the training prepares them for their role within EurOcé. The training is in fact a basic training, just enough to get you started. After the training, OMDc employees will play a role in conversion and migration activities. Furthermore they have to think how to setup the sales area structure, and finally implement this. This is part of the informal learning. You can imagine that thinking about the sales area structure, an OMDc employee encounters many questions, like .. what naming conventions should I us…how do I have to …. (Roy vult dit aan). On a lot of these questions, his colleagues in existing EurOcé countries can help him. They already went through this process once. Wouldn’t it be nice if those colleagues could support him with the required knowledge and skills to do his job, from behind his desk? Wouldn&amp;apos;t it be nice if those collegueas already created a Wiki in which they shared their best practices, which is accesible from behind his desk? Wouldn&amp;apos;t it be nice this Wiki could be updated with experiences from our new colleague Wouldnt it be nice if he could drop a problem somwhere, hoping that one of his collegues can provide him with a suitable workaround? Wouldn’t it be nice, that based on ongoing discussion on certain topics, even new formal training events could be generated in which employees can be trainer as student at the same time? Wouldn’t we benefit all from this? Something to think about …. We talk now about collaborative learning here, from your own workplace. You have access to all relevant data, you can mainatin and update it. And you have a vast group of experts around you, to help you.
