A pilot project using wikis to collaborate between
3 buildings and 7 science teachers

 

http://www.westlake.k12.oh.us/instructionaltechnology/thonnings/images/wikispaceTitle200.jpg

I use this free-for-teachers wiki service for my classes, for purposes of demonstrating and in-service for teachers , as well as co-organizing with other teachers with their class wikis.  See links below for an example of some of my wikis

·         6th Grade Typing/Technology Class
This class bases all assignments on the wiki.  Students have their own page to post content.

·         Parkside iPod download page
I created this wiki to link up with iTunes so students sync their iPods with content that we create

·         Thonnings Tech Wiki
I use this as a platform to give in-service so that teachers can discuss information, download instructions, watch instructional movies, etc.
