Introducing a WIKI to a Community of Practice is the title of the Action Enquiry report which I finalised and submitted before the Easter Holidays. The findings were nearly all positive so I decided to try and take it further by publishing the work and seeking wider comment and comparison with others’ experiences. So far I have received a couple of comments in the small group community, nothing in Ultraversity Community, some encouragment from Nancy White, and a request to be interviewed about 43things for a Harvard graduate’s research project.
My intention is to update and re-present the findings in a shorter format to share with people who have done or are considering similar enterprises, in the hope that this leads to enough new learning to make up an Independent learning Module.

Although I have yet to read your report (and I will soon!) I am interested in your approach to publishing / presenting your work and findings to a wider community.
Glad that the small group has provided some feedback to your report however, and that you have engaged Nancy White and others in your work.
Andy, I will read your whole article before writing extensively on wikis myself. It’s weighty! I’ve posted a couple of far more modest blog posts regarding a wiki training I recently did for a non-profit. Thought they might be of interest. They are at
