ABSTRACT
With the growth and increased usefulness of the World Wide Web it has become an effective means of collaboration between users. WikiWiki meaning very quickly is a collaborative web server allowing multiple users to collaborate in editing pages without the need for user-names, passwords, or any other security mechanisms. This paper presents the results of building a WikiWikiWeb web-site consisting of several Wiki pages. The site was evaluated by students who carried out a series of tasks in order to measure the collaborative power of the Wiki environment and the behavior of the students when faced with a site that allow them to freely edit and add content to their peer groups pages.
