2. Goals for today’s 1 hour workshop All participants will sign up and get a wiki
All participants will become familiar with basic wiki tools and tasks such as creating, editing and “reverting to a prior version”.
Remember: You can hear Barry but he can not hear you! You have to type any questions you have for him in the chat area!
3. What’s a Wiki anyway? A simple way for an individual to “publish” information on the Internet
A simple way for a selected group of viewers/users of the wiki to change the information that is presented.
A way to preserve the changes
A way to keep a history of the changes
4. Some Wiki characteristics You can organize the order and relationship of pages
There are ways to determine who can make changes
You can keep them simple or add other features
Easy enough that students can learn to make changes in one lesson.
You can add images and/or video clips
You can “undo” changes easily
5. Some Wikis in action!
