Thing #16

At the last school I attended there was a wiki set up for the staff. Each department within had their own page. I was the GT liaison for the building, so I had a page for my teachers. There were many pages I could click on and find information going on within that department, with links, discussions, and lists of important items. I think wiki is a very useful tool to organize information for an organization, giving members instant access to information and a platform for input. I have used it in my classroom for lit. circles and history discussion. I have also used it for my GT students to collaborate on projects. I will continue to use it in the library and hope to add the links to images and videos. I can see how using it to show the Bluebonnet books and offer input from students on books could be fun. I enjoyed reading the posts from others for 23 Things. I can see the transformation many of us have made with becoming aware of tech tools that aid us in our quest to offer educational opportunities to the next generation.
