For all of the times I've sighed when my students didn't follow directions... I posted this without the link to my Wiki!
Senora Keith's Wiki
Setting up the Wiki was very easy and intuitive! I discovered that the inserting process was also easy. However, because I didn't click save, my objects didn't look like they inserted correctly and I took a couple out before I settled on one. This actually led to another problem. I left the slide show in because I liked it, but the phrase above it is misspelled, so it's going to have to come out. I can't have misspellings, typos, etc. in anything I publish. However, I do want to show this as a finished "thing" so I don't plan on changing it until next week. Creating a link was so easy! I linked to my school district web page. This made me think of another use for a wiki--job hunting! I'm in search of a full-time elementary position. I could use a wiki for my professional documents (on-line portfolio, anyone?) and link to my website or other supporting material on the web! This excites me!
Another great function of a wiki, in my opinion, is staff communication. In my program, Shared Time, we are a group of just over 30 teachers who drive all over teaching students all kinds of subjects on all different schedules. A wiki would be a great electronic bulletin board to reach us with info. We currently are encouraged to drive to the office 2 times a week to check for memos. I think I'll do my part for the environment and suggest this to my supervisor.
