Irina, There is a growing literature on the use of wikis in education and nearly all the research I know of is in colleges. Here are a few papers that jump to mind: Bruns, Axel and Sal Humphreys. (2005) "Wikis in Teaching and Assessment - The M > Cyclopedia Project." Proceedings of WikiSym 2005. http://snurb.info/files/Wikis%20in%20Teaching%20and%20Assessment.pdf Forte, Andrea and Amy Bruckman. (2006) From Wikipedia to the classroom: exploring online publication and learning. Proceedings of the International Conference of the Learning Sciences, Vol 1. Bloomington, IN, pp. 182-188. (http://www-static.cc.gatech.edu/~aforte/ForteBruckmanFromWikipedia.pdf) Lund, Andreas. (2006) "Is There a Space for the Teacher in a Wiki?" Proceedings of WikiSym 2006. Rick, J. and Guzdial, M.

Hello there,
I am looking for some examples of innovative ways that "digital technologies" such as blogs, facebook/myspace, wikis, flickr sites, cell phones, clickers, etc. have been used in teaching college classes. These can be success or disaster stories, revelations, or suggestions of any articles about the topic.
Thank you!
