Abstract :
Using a wiki is one of the most popular and simple way to collaborate in education. A survey conducted in electronics and computer education students in Gazi University, Faculty of Technical Education shows that wikis containing lecture materials are the most preferred source for the course following the instructor´s handouts. In this paper, the combination of lecture notes, presentations and interactive animations on a wiki for artificial neural network course is presented. The opportunities and enhancement of wikis for collaborative engineering education are discussed.
