Middle school students will be conducting a research project on historical figures. Group members will collaborate with one another and groups researching the same figures will collaborate with one another. Individual students will conduct and contribute their own research, eventually creating a single, dynamic body of knowledge about each figure. Which of the following digital tools would best allow students to collaborate in this way?
  1. Updateable Web page (wiki).
  2. Instant messaging.
  3. Video recording (vlog).
  4. Photo editing suite.
Explanation
Correct Response: A. A classroom wiki is a collection of webpages that is designed to be created and revised collaboratively. The teacher can design it to fit the needs of the project. It would be an excellent platform for the described collaborative research project. B is incorrect because blog posts are sequential and do not provide enough flexibility for a creative, collaborative project. C and D are incorrect because, while video recordings (C) and photos (D) could be incorporated into the project, they are not collaborative tools.
