Wiki Bug! I’ve Got it Bad!

Filed Under (blogging) by teachingsagittarian on 26-12-2006



There’s a new link to the class wiki I’ve set up for 2007. 
Wikispaces

I’d originally set up one linked to Teaching Sagittarian but I’ve decided that I wanted a separate one that my students can edit, complete tasks and discuss our learning. 

Here’s a wonderful animated review for teachers to get started with wikis (if you’re keen) from TeachersFirst -  but beware! This wiki bug is very addictive and highly contagious!!  I’m just following the ideas suggested in this wiki review until I get my head around how I’m going to make wiki’s work for us. 

You might also like to check out  the TeachersFirst wikispace – there are loads of ideas and links to other teacher wikispaces!

Wikispaces wants to give away 100,000 yes 100,000 spaces for education purposes.  It’s Free!!  Now is the best time to create a Wikispace.  Go on take the plunge!  Click here.  It only takes 30 seconds to create your very own space!  It’s that easy. 


If you want to know more, don’t forget to check out CoolCatTeacher’s blog on How I use Wikis – Vicki has shared some amazing tips to get you started on a Classroom Wiki.
And then there’s this site that I just found (and I really must go to bed when I’m done!!)
This site aims to answer one question: How can I use wikis in education?  A must read! 
Right – I really am off to bed now!
