- Legibility: No more squinting over class notes taken while half-asleep, bored stiff, or hung over!
- Durability: Wikis can be developed over the entire 4 (or 5, or 6, or…) years of a student’s education, allowing him or her to access notes taken years earlier if necessary.
- Searching: Wikis can be searched, in the page and across the entire collection of pages, allowing immediate access to their contents.
- Links: Students can link to other pages within their wikis as well as to other sites on the Web, bringing new bodies of information together in one place.
- Collaboration: Several people can collaborate on the same wiki, allowing you to benefit from the strengths of your classmates.
- Affordability: Wikis are still closely tied to the open-source movement, so many wiki programs and services are free.
Wikis have been especially popular with students, and a number of specialized wikis have been developed specifically with students’ needs in mind, including NoteMesh, stud.icio.us, and PBwiki.

Maria Mazzi ShawThis site includes great tips and benefits for using wikis for better note-taking. For example, legibility is no longer an issue. Also, collaboration is key. Several students can collaborate on the same wiki, allowing students to benefit from the strengths of other classmates.

Once your wiki is set up, you can begin to add your notes. Most wikis have an “edit page” button placed somewhere prominently on the page (a handful allow changes to be made directly to the page); click the button and a text box appears to make your changes in. Wikis use a special set of text cues called markup for formatting and manipulating text, though most also have a command bar at the top or bottom of the text box. Learn at least the basic markup syntax your choice uses — although this will likely slow you down at first, it will save a great deal of time in the long run

The real strength of wikis, though, is the ability to create links on the fly to other pages on the wiki. On Wikidot, you put the text you want to become a link in triple brackets, [[[like this]]]. If the text inside the brackets is the same as the title of a page already created, the new link will automatically link to that page. If not, clicking on the link will allow you to create a new page. So while you’re working, you can link to other pages, tying for instance theories and their creators in a science class, or dates and events in a history class.
-
In many wikis, pages can also be tagged with keywords describing the content, allowing you to quickly see related pages (and often to bring out otherwise hidden relationships between different readings). So, for instance, in my admittedly scanty sample wiki, I can call up all the pages tagged “race” — useful in my case for creating a syllabus.
