As I searched through the Wikipedia site I discovered that the school I work at does not have a wiki page. I work at Maple Elementary School in Walled Lake Schools and since the district had a page already I decided to create a page for my school. I wrote that it is an elementary school in Walled Lake Schools and that it is located in West Bloomfield, MI. I also included a link to Maple's school website. Here is a screen shot of the page:
I have worked with Wikispaces in a few of the classes I have taken, so I was familiar with how to create a new page. In CEP 810 my group used a wiki page for our group project. In my new wiki page that I created for CEP 811 I included a link to this page. Here is a link: https://kaintechnologypage.wikispaces.com/
The fact that you've used a wiki to collaborate with classmates should be good experience for asking your own students to use one. You can explain to them the benefits, and set expectations for how to stay organized and respect everyone's work on the site. Did you ever have issues of groupmates changing one another's contributions?
ReplyDeleteI didn't have an issue with people changing anything I contributed. Someone did change the font to make it so our wiki was all the same, but that did not bother me. My experience with wikis has been a great one!
