MEDIAWIKI AND GOOGLE DOCS AS ONLINE COLLABORATION TOOLS FOR GROUP PROJECT CO-CONSTRUCTION

Abstract

2This paper reports and describes the use of MediaWiki and Google Docs as online collaboration tools for co-constructing knowledge in a group project. Undergraduate Information Management students used MeidaWiki and Google Docs as collaboration tools for carrying out two separate projects. We assessed and compared students’ perception on the effectiveness of MediaWiki and Google Docs after the completion of the projects. Results indicated positive experiences from using the tools for online collaboration in the group projects for some of the students. More students found MediaWiki an effective knowledge management tool than Google Docs.
