Week 9: Thing 18: creating/editing a wiki

I actually did this wiki thing over a month ago, but I forgot to blog about it! As I mentioned in my previous post, we used a wiki as an anchor agenda for a tech inservice in August.  Our district tech coordinator invited all us presenters from different schools to join a wiki in PBWikis. She actually issued the invitation via email the night before the presentation, but still I was able to edit the agenda and add links to the sites that I was presenting (like the new district library catalog, and a reading blog for students). It took me a few tries to figure out how to use the edit tab, but after that, it was easy. I have yet to start my own personal wiki. I like the idea of using it to plan a vacation – my husband and I can then both edit it. I would like to use a wiki for a pathfinder and collaborate with classroom teachers, but this has not yet happened. The school year is still young!
