Thing #16

Wikis are a lot less complicated than I had known. I used the Spring branch Library Wiki sandbox portion without any trouble. I actually figured it out on my own and then realized that there were instructions on the Library2Play site afterward. Something that I am thinking about is creating a Wiki for each language arts class. As we study new authors and their works, students can compile lists of facts, ideas, thoughts, or conclusions about the author/text. It's a great way to gather information on each author and store it somewhere that the students can easily access it later. After information in gathered, we could make trading cards for each author or piece of text. These trading cards can be used to study for quizzes and tests or as a reference for a writing assignment.
