COMMENT: THE WIKI WAY IN A HURRY--THE ICIS ANECDOTE.

Author List: Te'eni, Dov;

MIS Quarterly, 2009, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 20-22.

The article discusses lessons learned from the use of wikis at the 2007 International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS) in Montreal, Canada. Twenty experts used wiki technology to record and create ideas that arose during a lecture. Although they succeeded in creating an information-rich white paper, drawbacks emerged. Collaborating via a wiki during the lecture was intellectually exhausting, thus discouraging further participation. Other projects with wikis have revealed issues related to various aspects of ownership of content created by wikis. The author believes wikis need to be integrated with technologies that promote socialization for learning before they can be instituted on a community-wide basis.
