=Wiki Spaces=

Remember that this space can be used for SO much! Example: Wikipedia the Kids Version: Students are assigned a topic to do research about, they have three partners in other classes, all who are on the same level as they are. Students must use the wiki to first make and divide a list of sub-topics (with teacher assistance and using wikipedia as an example), each student will do their research and write their paragraph on the wiki. Each student might also be required to find and upload a related image using AP Images or Google images. All students would be required to add to the alphabetized works cited list, allowing advanced students to add hyperlinks. Other students may be required to read AND comment or discuss the witting, checking for mistakes and making suggestions. Can you think of other examples?
 * Teachers can work on their own collaborative projects
 * Students can work on group projects with kids that are not in their class, allowing for more flexible grouping on the teacher's part.
