A Wiki (Hawaiian for "fast") is a hypertext system for websites. In contrast to HTML pages users can not only read Wiki pages but also edit them. A Wiki can document group work or serve as a kind of knowledge base for your course. Wiki pages are created by means of a special Wiki syntax before editing and linking them to one another.
Introduce Wikis as knowledge base created by advanced students to be used as reference in an introductory course; or as a list of links for series of lectures that are related thematically.
A Wiki is a learning resource usually embedded in an OpenOLAT course. You can use the same Wiki in several courses. If you have not created a course yet you will find further information in the chapter "Creating Courses" before creating your Wiki by means of the following instruction.
