Wiki

Well, alright, I really like the whole practicum wiki that was done for a project, I think that every practicum class should do that. The one and most important reason why I really like the website is becouse we can blow off steam about work, teachers, and really each other I think that its a good idea. I also really like how we could have reminders about hw on that website, thats one thing that I think should be added to it by the designers so that none of us will never, ever forget about hw or anything like that ever again. :) Overall, I really like this website and I think it can really be a good resource for our practicum class. As for being able to use wikis in my own class room i do plan to be able to use one. I really want to use the wiki so i can keep in touch with my students, about any information that they need to know or what they want me to know, i would do this by having one of those discussion boards on the wiki. I would also like to use the wiki for class assignment ss and so i can post document for my student on the website. These document for me would range from simple links that i want my students to look at, or handouts that they will need, or also article that i will pout on the wiki for them to read. I think the wikis are an important step to eliminating paper in the schools, and basically forcing our students to become organized. Idk i just really like the idea of wikis being used in the classroom, and i intend to use them in my history class.
