BPM Focushttp://bpmfocus.wordpress.com/2008/04/15/itensil-dynamic-process-platform/ [BPM Focus] Itensil Dynamic Process Platform: What I am getting at is the lack of adaptability inherent in most workflow and BPM systems - you are stuck with whatever process was described at the time it was built. Now while that might be a good thing for a big insurance company or bank wanting to make sure that a clerk doesn’t get creative with a bank draft, it is a cumbersome problem for the rest of us.

Library Lady Marler's WEB 2.0 Bloghttp://marler00.edublogs.org/2008/03/12/thing-7-wikis/ [Library Lady Marler's WEB 2.0 Blog] THING 7 = WIKIS:  So that being said I still believe that wiki spaces are a great collaborative tool for learning and sharing.  It certainly will cut down on the number of students needing to make copies on the copy machine in the library!  Note sharing here we come!  Vicki Davis’ blog was hilarious, especially the visual of the girls squealing in the hallway.  I think Wikis are great as long as the students understand THAT SOME TYPES OF WIKIS CAN BE CHANGED BY ANYONE AT ANYTIME!!  Such as, you guessed it, WIKIPEDIA!!!  Teachers need to ensure that students understand what wikis are valid for research and contain valid information to use for citations in English, History, etc.
