Wikis

Ideas for use - any content heavy area of science, including HSW where a wiki could be used to look at the life and works of famous (and not so famous) scientists. Good for a collaborative exercise on the history of ideas, such as how models of the atom have evolved. If this included the evidence on which each model was based it could be developed to be written as if it was one of the scientists commenting on another scientists work.
Good for revision leading up to a test.
Another suggested use for a wiki was to present information at the beginning of a topic.
