Every participant can write and edit text, create weblinks or embed pictures
A ‘history’ function allows tracking all the editing steps
Useful for
Writing tasks where students collaboratively work on a specific topic, story or problem
Creating a multimedia collage (text, pictures, captions, embedded video or music files)
Track and document steps for a group project
Students collaboratively write a wiki with individual students responsible for separate parts (peer writing and editing)

Challenges
A Moodle wiki can only be edited by one person at the time. When someone from your group is using the edit mode of the wiki, you will get a corresponding message, when you click on Edit.
Delay in time => set deadlines
