The Wonderful, Wild World of Wikis
Tuesday, April 1
4:00 to 5:30 pm
|
Imagine your students working together on a project that turns the traditional term paper on its head. It’s possible with a wiki, a website where your students contribute writing, images, movies, music and links, and peer edit their classmates’ work, all without technical web skills.
Join three of your colleagues as they share how they used wikis in their classes, including what worked, what didn’t work, how to craft a good wiki assignment, and a discussion on the perceptions of students to the online format. There will also be brief introduction to wikis.
Speakers

Take your PowerPoints to the next level in this hands-on session. We will learn how to make your bullets appear one-by-one, dim into the background, or stand out; use the drawing tools to emphasize a section of an image; and make a picture crawl across the screen.
