Abstract
With the growth and increased usefulness of the World Wide Web it has become an effective means of collaboration between users Wiki Wiki meaning ‘very quickly’ is a collaborative web server allowing multiple users to ‘collaborate’ in editing pages without the need for user names, passwords or any other security mechanisms. This paper presents the results of building a ‘WikiWiki’ Web-site consisting of several ‘Wiki’ pages. This site was evaluated by students who carried out a series of tasks in order to measure the collaborative ‘power’ of the Wiki environment and the behavior of the students when faced with a site that allow them to freely edit and add content to their peer group’s pages.
