Collaboration: Our Blogs and Wiki
The CUNY Academic Commons offers two very different ways of communicating ideas and information. If you're looking to have a group of people build up a series of resource pages in a collaborative fashion, you should consider using our wiki. And if you're interested in creating an ongoing narrative of your work, you can easily set up a blog on this site. Check out some of our member blogs here.
