Collaboration is a concept built into the wiki software learning system.  Imagine a world,” says one Wikimedia Foundation ad, “in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That’s our commitment.”The beauty of wikis is that they are continuously evolving and democratic–no one has a monopoly on the truth. Unlike traditional learning systems like textbooks, wikis are interactive and the content is up for discussion and available for tweaking and new perspectives.

Users are encouraged to edit the Wikiversity learning system. In the guided Wikiversity tour participants are told: “You can’t break Wikiversity. Anything can be fixed or improved later. So go ahead, edit, and help make Wikiversity the best learning center on the Internet, but we also should not forget to contribute our best efforts to perfect it!”
