I met with the Tech people today. Had a great discussion about the database behind the wiki. It seems I'll be able to get heaps of data out of it, which hopefully will get me a few publications (I think I promised two in the proposal for the grant). The students are aware that I will be focussing on what's in the database. There are some really engaged students, one of whom was updating pages at 4:00 am!
I've also found that TikiWiki allows some pages to become slide shows. I'm going to try using it for tomorrow's lecture. I do have the same info in an S5 presentation as well (S5 is a Simple Standards-based Slide Show System). It keeps students on their toes when you don't do things the same way.
