I'm back from a short Air Guard assignment and a visit with some dear friends...
If you haven't already, please see my addition to the class wiki under Blog Reviews titled The Lost Art of Feedback – Commenting on the Web . Great article, given our drive to use web 2.0 in the classroom.
I've actually begun to introduce my instructional team to various concepts learned in the class. Though we won't be driving to web 2.0 anytime soon, we can definitely use the wiki as a starting point for our development. I've asked trainers to begin accessing the site to see how (if?) the wiki would be beneficial to them. I'll know more as we progress through the next two weeks, which are development weeks for us.
We use SharePoint at American Express, but this program seems to serve as a repository and not necessarily a shared-content, open-source site. This class (MED 608G) has provided some wonderful ideas for managing team development, though I fear that corporate America is not quite ready for a formal shared wiki.

Thats awesome you are going to try to use what you have learned in the class in your workplace. I am going to try to introduce all the flight instructors to my Wiki as well, I am not sure how it will go over either.
I have spent a long time trying to get SharePoint to be a wiki, and I'll admit it has potential, but it just isn't as easy as a good old simple to use wiki. I hope American Express will find appropriate opportunities to start using a wiki, I'm sure you'll get them there someday.
