Abstract

Wiki tools for text development, production and dissemination by internet enable text development to be studied by the editing history in addition to the hypertext structure. Category systems drawing on Halliday’s theory of cohesion between sentences are offered as tools for describing and assessing text development made by 16-year old students. Inspection of patterns in the editing history and hypertext structure indicates that students seemed to be primarily engaged in knowledge telling rather than knowledge transformation as approaches to text production.

Summary

Introduction

Wiki tools for text development, production and dissemination by internet enable text development to be studied by the editing history in addition to the hypertext structure. Bruk av wiki Viktige mål for dette prosjektet var at elevene skulle bygge kunnskap representert ved tekster som var synlige for hele klassen gjennom å dele, kritisere og forbedre. Slike arbeidsmåter var til dels et brudd med tidligere praksis, og wiki-verktøyet medierte også et ønske fra lærerne om å utvikle noen nye arbeidsmåter for elevene.
