Thing 5
1. Watch this common craft video about the wiki phenomenon. Check
2. Create your own Wiki space. I did mine through Google sites. Check.
3. Write down your wiki address (URL) in case you forget.
Address: https://sites.google.com/site/rivercitypubliclibrary/ Check.
4. Write a blog post on what you learned and think about Wikis.
So I have made quite a few wiki's for teacher education classes so I just thought I would reflect. Wiki's are helpful especially if you aren't very good at technology. Wiki's are easy to build, easy to use, easy to update and easy to share. Wikis are also cheap because you don't have to buy a domain name. They are great for posting things for classes or libraries especially if you are in a school where students can get on the computers by themselves and download information like on Big 6 or what references are available in the library or to get a reading list or make a comment. I told my husband that I was making a wiki for my library class and he said "Wiki??" I said "Yes, it is a website that can be made by one person or many people and can be changed by whoever has controls" Then he said "Oh like Wikipedia Duh!" You learn something new every day. Check
