The results highlight the fact that student attitudes to group work, in general, are mixed, and that the use of wikis per se is not enough to improve these attitudes. On the positive side, students found wikis useful for arranging information and sharing knowledge, while instructors thought wikis made managing and marking group work easier and more effective. Other issues related to using wikis as a collaborative learning tool in higher education are also considered.pdfen-NZEducational technologiesWeb technologiesWikisTertiary educationInstruction designIs Wiki an Effective Platform for Group Course Work?Text
