I just wrote a book on the use of various web 2.0 tools in the classroom, but with the focus on K-12. I think using a blog or wiki to develop a "crowd-sourced" collection of what's being covered in class is an awesome idea, and I'm interested in your successes with it!

Like you, I use PBWiki to administer my class at Bentley College, and have been requiring students to take turns sharing their notes on the class wiki. I created a schedule where two students are assigned to post their notes after every given class session, and at least twice during the semester, all other students must add to notes that their classmates post. PBwiki published this <a href="http://blog.pbwiki.com/2007/11/01/edu-case-study-pbwiki-at-bentley-college/" rel="nofollow">case study</a> about my class wiki, and there's also a <a href="http://screencast.com/t/GcMea6VP" rel="nofollow">video tour</a> so you can take a closer look. Please feel free to contact me about the use of Web 2.0 technologies in the classroom. -- Mark Hi David,
