You can discuss homework assignments with your classmates and help each other out with any questions you may have. It is also helpful to use a wiki when you have a group project. You can communicate with your group about the project and present your own ideas to help improve it. Businesses would also benefit from using wikispaces. They can discuss new ideas with each other or talk about new products that the business is coming out with. It is good to have a wiki if you are working from home and you need to talk with people from work who are in the office.

While it may be a great supplement for business, it should remain as just a supplement.

It eliminates the need to keep emailing papers and documents back and forth. All there is to do is post everything on the wiki space and that way everyone in the group has equal access to add, delete, or edit anything they deem necessary. This is helpful because peers and co-workers can work on projects from virtually anywhere. I think the convenience factor is a good thing, but it can have a downside. I think that group projects turn out best when people are interacting with each other and showing emotion with their ideas and input. I think by using a wiki space, people would get lazy and claim that the project can be done in its entirety on the wiki space. In my opinion, a tandem of actual group meetings along with the use of wiki spaces would produce the best final product for a group or team.","dateCreated":"1253590154","smartDate":"Sep 21, 2009","userCreated":{"username":"previtej","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/previtej","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"}},{"id":"14515965","body":"I also agree with Flanigan and Shepherd on their points about social involvement and interaction.
