I'm not sure what I think of LT yet. Sort of a regression in threaded discussion, why not just incorporate the worlds best threaded discussion we already have?

I must say though I have read a lot of discussion on Wikipedia over the past months, ever since I made my first tentative edit. The thread I was reading yesterday was on Drupal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Drupal :-)

That's it from me. I have a confession. When I started this (at 3.00am in the morning last week as I headed for the airport) it was here in LT I thought I was supposed to be writing. Some of my chicken scratching comments are there, but no-one noticed them.

Derekc (talk)‎

Hi Derek ...

It's a tough call - a Wiki is a wiki and it shouldn't try to grow up into something which it isn't. In that sense - the Wiki shouldn't try to replicate successful technologies like threaded discussion.

The challenge we were facing in WikiEducator - is that many new users were finding it difficult to communicate in a unstructured environment. Newbies were Folk were not sure where to place their reponses, how to start new discussions, forgetting to sign posts, not sure how to indent etc.

LQT has another interesting feature derived from the wiki way - namely the feature of archiving posts - which will encourage the community to remain actively engaged by writing these summaries. We'll see how this works.

LQT is very much still a standard wiki page - you can edit my post! (This of course will be duly recorded in the history.). LQT uses the standard wiki syntax which useful when discussing syntax etc.

For me LQT should be judged in terms of making it easier for folk to communicate within the wiki rather than comparing it to other dedicated technologies.

As a lay person it is an uphill task to learn so much in the time allotted however i think i will get there with lots of practice. i am glad to be introduced to wiki.

Testing, testing, testing...

Wayne,

At first glance, not being used to using threaded discussions, I'd say LT is an effective way to keep focused for a specific topic. Let's use it and see.

Now to go off-topic, it was great meeting you again, at the RCS luncheon (a bit formal, but there we are). Your talk went down very well. I know that my friend, Deborah, was impressed enough to put your name forward at the Judiciary Educational Committee as a presenter at one of the upcoming seminars for judges the committee organizes.

We are trying to be effective WikiAmbassadors...

Thanks for a lively lunchtime.

John

Tippen (talk)‎

LQT is a great improvement on what we had before in terms of structuring discussions.

RE the RCS luncheon - I really enjoyed chatting about WikiEd. Wow - its great to have such effective WikiAmbassadors on our side! I'd love to chat about the project at the Judiciary Educational Committee.

Hope my "radical" views were not too lively <smile>

Mackiwg (talk)‎

I like the idea of Liquid Threads, it makes it easy to follow, and contribute to, a specific discussion topic.

Linda (talk)‎

I share the same opinion as Linda. Liquid Threads simplify the communication and encourage "virtual talking"

Mbjohnson (talk)‎

Yeah, me too. It's easy to post new discussion threads. But I would also like to develop together with our school's Computer teachers a website for our school which we could also use for posting our online lessons or modules or which we could make into a virtual learning environment. I need trainings on developing a software for teaching Philippine Geography, History and Government for online classes using Moodle or maybe Blackboard or other platforms for e-learning.

Cecille2274 (talk)‎

Liquid threads are a great way of communicating in an environment to build up content through consensus. The ideas of all participants are available for comment, and new discussions can easily be made from existing treads. The threads are easy to follow and it is very easy to stay on topic.

Hylton (talk)‎

This is a step up on the way talk pages have previously presented. As a scanner of written material it allows me to comprehend each thread and easily identify sub-threads or topics as they emerge.

Helena (talk)‎

This is a test reply in the Communication and interaction function of WikiEducator. I can see a lot of potential for this, particularly to negotiate content while writing open content materials in a collabortive environment and provide quality content that is consensus based.

Brendah (talk)‎

Yes, i agree with Sanjaya. There is alot of potential of negotiating open content materials in a collaborative environment. Open content can travel well and have no borders or restrictions. When such type of material is developed and posted, people are free to use them and tailor them according to the way they want to use them in a classroom situation. In this case, users won't have a trouble of copyright issues. Though the material developed is open to everyone, quality material is needed to be put on open portal.

Mutuzana

Mutuzana (talk)‎

I find LQT (official abreviation of liquid threads) somewhat like keeping notes on a debate. I guess you have to read all of them just to stay in topic since there are no headings for different discussions. Or does it mean that you open a new page each time the discussion drifts?

Berardo (talk)‎

You can add headings wherever you want[edit]

Though normally a heading would be created at the start of a new thread. :-)

Eloquence (talk)‎

So... I read the discussion and finally got that LT is liquid thread.... I'll keep reading...

Reflecting (talk)‎

It gets confusing when there are two acronyms used for the same word. Can we come up with one acronym for LiquidThread? Is it LQT or LT?

Ptauriki (talk)‎

I hereby declare it to be LQT. :-)

Eloquence (talk)‎

LT or LQT, whatever, please introduce the acronym(s)in the WikiEducator Tutorial number 8. rz akinkanju

Zachmann (talk)‎

I suggest a glossary of acronyms and their meanings.. Chris Babowal

Babceo (talk)‎

that could be your resource chris! ta, kelly

Kiwispouse (talk)‎

Well done! <smile> - we've really got to try harder not to speak with acronyms.

Sorry about that.

Mackiwg (talk)‎

Right! The same happened to me. I was wondering all the time what "LT" was till I came to this post. Finally I could find out it stands for "Liquid Thread". I had read about it somewhere before but I couldn't associate right away.

It seems that WikiEducator's discussion forum was not as good as it is now with LT. I must say I found it a bit confusing but once you get used to it, you'll find it easy to grasp. At first, it was not very clear to me who the author of the post was.

Joao (talk)‎

Hi Joao,

Following your comment related with the usability of "LT", I found the use of different colours a little bit confusing.

Mbjohnson (talk)‎

Wow! I think this is so great I can't believe I didn't know about these fantastic resources!! XD

Brendah (talk)‎

This is all very interesting and new to me. But i think the LQT holds a lot of potential especially for someone new to the discussion to catch up and contribute positively rather than take the whole discussion backwards.

Sebastianmusonda (talk)‎

Sebastiaan you make an interesting observation and I totally agree with you. I used LQT's in a learning environment before and it is very easy to come up to speed with the content of discussion and to make a contribution. The structure of the LQT's also allows the user to differentiate where the main discssion points are.

Hylton (talk)‎

I encountered difficulty with collaborative editing/recent changes tutorial. I was not able to open a new tab. Please come to my rescue.

Mcebisi (talk)‎

Mcebisi, how did you create the formating in your posting above? I can't see from looking at the source.

Leeming (talk)‎

Hi David

The formatting used for the box is simply to leave a space preceding the text in the editing window.

This creates boxed text

This doesn't (no preceding space)

The format is typically used for highlighting lines of code or syntax instructions. It doesn't work well when wrapping paragraph text.

Cheers

Mackiwg (talk)‎

Here I am doing my activity to Test a Reply. I can't remember now if I was supposed to say or do anything in particular... I do like the idea of there being a sort of backroom discussion area. Nice... I'm enjoying this workshop, both the content and the format. Cheers...

Thedaph (talk)‎

This has been a very exiting and interesting journey for some of us who are Newbies in this area of collaborative content development. However I find the text formating tools above inadequate as they do not contain all the basic formating tools. The use of a cheatsheet is very confusing to new entrants and I believe it requires that a more comprehensine formating tool set be developed to make working with wikies as simple as working on a wordprocesor application. That would actually make it more comfortable for ordinary content creators/writers who are non-technical to actually work with.

Good morning, Mac, if I might be so bold as to call you that. I believe I may have some right to do so since that was the name that my students and friends used to call me when I taught school here many years ago. You see, it is difficult for Akan speakers to hear and/or pronounce the letters L and R, especially when they come together as the do in the name McLaren. Well, as you can see, I am enjoying this session, and looking forward to others who may be doing the same. Nana

I'm not too concerned because I'll just continue with the next tutorial.

I wouldn't mind the next certification if I have met the requirements. If there is anything I've missed please let me know. I'm keen to advance. I'm also keen to share this course with teachers at school once I've finished. I think there is real merit in it.

October 2010 Test Threaded Discussion[edit]

Do great minds always think alike? ( A feeling of consensus and less divergent thinking I get with threaded discussions)

Thembi (talk)‎

Perhaps, but there is always a counter argument and a collection of great minds should be able to find it. Tutorial 8 cheers--Reuben M Cutfield 00:52, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

hello everybody, this is the activity on Discussion Pages. This is a very good means of communication enabling various people to give their views about a particular subject matter.

Hi, everyone, this is the testing the threads in the workshop training. I am seriously participating in the threads and found that this thread facility is one of the most important for collaborative discussions and editing.

This is so true. Teaching and Learning are an ongoing and lifelong process and wikieducator definitely provides a collaborative environment where we can and we are actually connecting and communicating with people around the world; while at the same time, encouraging reflection and discussion and creating further understanding through the use of new wiki skills. --Reen.redrose 16:11, 26 November 2010 (UTC) Reena Rajkomar

Wiki helps us to keep in touch with different people all around the world, despite the fact that we are not physically present. Our knowledge increases as time goes on, we become independent individuals, and more open minded. Through Wiki, we get to participate in a collaborative atmosphere, where learning forms a crucial part.

Wajiihahemambokus (talk)‎

Very true, what I've learnt while working in teaching is that a collaborative atmosphere is a crucial part of meaningful learning as both the teacher and the learner come away from the experience enriched. Wikieducator displays the collaboration that early childhood teachers strive to each within centres on a world wide scale.

Katgrace (talk)‎

Learning revolution is underway. The future is in collaboration. --Teromakotero 19:31, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

WikiEducator can truly transform education as those who have previously been unable to access same will be able to do so. Very exciting.

Ellenfeig (talk)‎

This is great. I just learned to reply to an existing thread.

Sebastian Panakal (talk)‎

Dear Harbansji, by watching the threads and replying to the queries or discussions is a good exercise to learni wiki editing skills. Best of Luck--Dr. K S Ramakrishnan 11:38, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Drksrk (talk)‎

This is my test reply, phew took me a while to realise I couldnt if I wasn't logged in! Lesson learn't was scratching my head for a minute there :-)

FiFi (talk)‎

This is my test reply. I love that the wiki has this option!

Kstone (talk)‎

I'm happy to find this feature, too. I am going to have to create the opportunity to use all we have been learning about wikis so I don't forget!--Lorette Pellettiere Calix 00:34, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Lpcalix (talk)‎

And I see it isn't necessary to insert a signature.

Lpcalix (talk)‎

Is it also not necessary to have a functional brain? That would be handy!

Jane.mountier (talk)‎

Or a functional computer? It's after 4pm so mine is working at glacial speed :-)

Jane.mountier (talk)‎

I'm also testing editing skills with a reply on this discussion page. (Now doing editing of the post)

SwedInBalchik (talk)‎

This is a test reply...

SwedInBalchik (talk)‎

I love using wikis! I have used the Moodle wiki a lot and it is always something academics struggle to know how to utilise to its full potential. Kristina
