What+is+a+wiki?

// Do you know what a wiki is? //
 Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to chat and connect with one another. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and cross links between internal pages on the fly. (Did you know that wiki means "quick" in Hawaiian?) A wiki website also allows us to communicate and collaborate in real time. You will be able to use discussion, link, video, picture, and change the cite to update any information that you think would be interesting and helpful to viewers.   A wiki can help you in school and learn because in Social Studies, we are learning about africa and how there economy is and and how they live. A wiki can help us learn because we can go to one of the links and see videos or articles that were posted on there. They can help you with more than just Social Studies, but they can help you in other subjects too. For instance they can help you in math also. In Math we are learning about triangles. I could go to a wiki and view pictures or video chats with people who are really good at knowing about triangles.
