Analysis and Reflection:

I was skeptical about the collaborative learning experience because sometimes I am not as confident as I could be about my work. When people make changes and edit, sometimes I tend to take them personally and start to criticize myself. I expect to be up-to-date with the wiki deadlines and to do research ahead of time and to edit other pages as much as possible and to not leave it last minute. I used wiki in CCT205 and waited last minute to edit and add pages which was not a good idea. I was very stressed and did not put as much effort in the assignment as I should have. It added a lot of unnecessary stress. This is a good opportunity teach other people material as well as a good experience in learning how to research.

I like to contribute to pages that I know information about and am confident about the material I am adding and changing. I never delete other people’s work because I know I would be upset if my work was just deleted rather than editing and adding to. I unfortunately do not check my pages for alterations because I am afraid that my work will be deleted and changed completely.

Reflection:

I still find collaborative forums very intimidating. I am a harsh critic of my own work so when other people read my work, it's very nerve wrecking. I enjoy editing other people's pages to see what they wrote about and are interested in and to see if people are interested in the same topics as me. I actually enjoyed working on this wiki moreso than I did last year, it was a better learning and working experience most likely because I was used to what to do and I had experience with wikis already whereas last year I was so overwhelmed. I would recommend people start early, I started earlier this time around but I should've kept up with it posting a little more than I did. Don't wait until the last minute because the number of topics to write about is so limited. The longterm deadlines make the assignment seem so easy but waiting until the last minute is so stressful and causes so much unnecessary anxiety. Adding a few edits and posts is definitely recommended. People did edit and add on to my pages which shows me that my work is important and worth reading and it makes me feel included in the course. Although I did find this wiki more enjoyable and appealing, topic-wise, I don't know if I would want to contribute to another one!
