Week 7: Wikis

I got truly emersed in wikis with Josh and wordnerd. This year I'm using the PBwiki. We used last year's wiki and wikipedia as models for our new wiki. Josh's students have created wiki pages on the Middle Eastern countries. He has covered the entire world in ONE SEMESTER with the wiki finishing up the last countries. Then they classes were in for their exams. They had to find the answers on one exam section using the wiki pages. We learned how to create folders so that each class could be separate. Wordnerd's Dozen Ways project is also posted. Wordnerd is really good at editing. If you decide to make a wiki, she would be a good resource. Now I've got to clean up the wiki a little before next semester.
