Thing #7

After looking at different Wiki pages, I was impressed by how some teachers are using them. We have a Wiki page at Southwood, that we are using to post websites that we are using with the other staff. When it was created, I did not realize that Kentwood had one of their how. I figured though that starting small might be a good idea.

Here's the link to the Southwood Wiki page:

I explored a Wiki page created by a fourth grade student and I was impressed by what her and her students were doing there. The page was being used as their class webpage and there were examples of student projects, podcasts, and discussions. Here's the link:

This wiki space was shared with me by a friend today. It is an amazing list of Web 2.0 sites for all different subjects. It is amazing.

I think wiki's are very well organized and easy to navigate, which make them a good resource to use with students.
