Cons of wikis ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],01.01.2011 Sylvia Moessinger Barriers to successful implementation of wikis might be  technical ,  pedagogical  and  attitudinal  nature. Credibility and reliability of wikis might be an issue.
Cons of wikis  (part 2) 01.01.2011 Sylvia Moessinger Pedagogical barriers One of the most noted E-learning problems is related to pedagogy. Technology is mostly used to support traditional modes of teaching while many E-learning environments are content-driven, being mostly used to deliver course materials on-line. Teachers are still seen as experts, acquisition  instead of participation metaphor often dominate the daily routines in classrooms, individual written assignments are still prevalent, and the pedagogical value of new technologies is often ignored.  However, E-learning 2.0 is more active and participatory and the learners are not simply consumers of material which has been compiled by instructors. A change towards new learning theories like (social) constructivism and connectivism are required. Learners need to become agile consumers and creators and take greater ownership in the information-rich Web 2.0 world with its emphasis on user-generated content, communication and collaboration.  The social constructivist model favours problem solving in a collaborative environment. The three main characteristics of the social constructivist approach is the use of complex, realistic problems, group collaboration, interaction and cooperation and learners are responsible and set goals, while teacher provide guidance. Hence, the use of wikis requires a change in pedagogical thinking.
