I have completed three peer reviews and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. All of the Wiki sites that I reviewed had great project ideas and the context was appropriate for their target audience. The first Wiki was called, "WHAT'S IN OUR BODIES?" with the emphasis on how humans are made up, the second Wiki was, "Biological Sciences Teacher's resource," which was aimed at life cycles and it used the growing of tomato plants as an example, and the third Wiki was, "Skilldevelopers," which looked at developing students personal skills in a chosen sport. As an outsider looking in I was able to give lots of positive feedback as well as some ideas that would help further enhance these sites. Unfotunatley I was unable to give any feedback on both the group's presentations because they had not yet been hyperlinked or embedded on the Wikis. I will go back into the review system at a later date and see if the presentations have been added, if so I will review each of them.

It was interesting to see how each group, (with the same set task), has used different organisation methods as well as varying levels of creativity. I have not had a peer review yet, however, I am looking forward to hopefully receiving some constructive feedback shortly.
The group Wikis are going to be fabulous resources to refer to in the future whilst completing work experience at schools and as a future teacher. It is amazing to see how Wikis can be used over varying year levels to promote collaborative, engaging and authentic projects. I am proud of the skills myself and the other EDN113 students have achieved over such a short period of time and I am definitely going to enhance my technology skills through further research and independent learning.
