Usage
The combination of wiki documentation, collaboration and tools attempts to support Kolb's experiential learning model.[1] A portable platform was chosen for ease of use and zero installation requirements.
- Collecting concrete experience, - wiki documentation with collaboration - group thought
- Observation of and reflection on that experience, - reviewing the wiki - models, visualizations, videos
- Formation of abstract concepts based upon the reflection, - brainstorming for procedures, solutions and implementations. - mind map, forum
- Testing the new concepts, - Admin. tools integrated in the wiki
Study group
Team learning[2] in the form of a study group may be improved with the use of WebLaminarTools. The ease of installation and MediaWiki plug-ins allows the group to create a private wiki for collaboration, knowledge sharing and reflection. Security can be set to allow only your team to view and edit.
IT Administration
The distribution of IT administration is organized to help the user achieve greater effectiveness by incrementally building on the lessons of the previous day in a personal wiki. Search capabilities and a customizable menu system make the wiki ideal to ease retrieval of data. You can make decisions quicker and become proactive.
Entrepreneur/Scientist
The Entrepreneur/Scientist mashup is collated to help with brainstorming, idea formation, hypothesis testing and factual reporting. It has business infrastructure tools to support finance, sales and support for a fledgling start-up so you can concentrate on the business at hand. It is intended to be a personal or team notebook that can be built on as your ideas and business pursuits expand.
All WebLaminarTools distributions can securely enable access to the wiki through the use of MoWeS technology.
Update on MoWeS: MoWeS is no longer available for download on the MoWeS website. It has discontinued business operations as of Nov. 7, 2012. Our download uses version 2.2.3 which was packaged just before they quit operations.
