This presentation is designed to help you address obstacles in building sustainable and collaborative communities (i.e., educational silos; lack of time and resources; anxiety about technology; power, resistance to change and culture; and lack of faculty/managerial buy-in, to name a few). You’ll learn about:

• Examples of successful wiki-community projects


• How to get started building your community the wiki way


• Using practical tools and technologies to accelerate your learning curve and performance
