TLT CoffeeRead for October 19: AcaWiki Increases Impact of Scholarly Research Using Web 2.0

TLT CoffeeReads take a look at educational technology in the media, from Penn State to around the world. Innovations at other schools, education and technology issues, new products and services, and other news are among subjects covered. These are designed to get people thinking and talking about how the articles relate to what we are doing here at Penn State in teaching and learning with technology.

AcaWiki's semantic-wiki based website allows scholars, students, and bloggers to easily post summaries, and discuss academic papers online.

A "Wikipedia for academic research," AcaWiki makes academic research more accessible, unlocking it from being behind firewalls. An added benefit is enabling of discussion about the research, which may lead to more collaboration among academics.
