Wiki
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL3wnvMoT0E
This is a video that asks the question: "what is a wiki?" The presenter interviews different people in the video trying to find out what these people know about wikis. This video would serve as a good pre-training video because its goal is to find out whether the interviewed people have any knowledge about wikis. It does provide some good information about wikis before attending the wiki workshop.

What Is A Wiki? World Wide Wiki
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SPpEINestc&feature=related
This is a video that explains what a wiki is and where it is headed as far as online. It defines a wiki, explains what they can be used for and explains also that they are now being created by social groups.

I found this site to be better than others because it goes on to explain about wikis to those that has not had any previous knowledge about a wiki. It provides them with knowledge that they would need as beginners before attending a wiki workshop.
