Written by students for students, LitWiki takes academic writing into the digital age. Using the same collaborative software that Wikipedia uses, LitWiki allows students to work on projects that highlight course content to share insights beyond the classroom.
LitWiki hosts various projects and discussions centered around the study of literature. Most of the writing for the semester will be on LitWiki, not only allowing you to share your knowledge, but also to learn important secondary literacies centered around wiki writing. The wiki allows you to collaborate with your peers or work on your own keeping in mind the goal of knowledge construction.
