We have recently started using wikis in class. For those of you who are unfamiliar, a wiki is basically a webpage or collection of webpages that are collaborative. This means that students can work together on projects. The fact that the wiki is online makes this resource available to students 24/7. Currently, classes are working together to create a common vocabulary page and the Geometry class has created a page where students can add the different theorems as we learn them in class.
Today students finished their examplar assignment. In an exemplar assignment, students are required to state the standard, re state the standard in their own words, create a problem that uses the standard and explain the steps necessary to solve it. Finally, students are adding hyperlinks to other web resources that will help other students learn the standard.
It is amazing how quickly these students can pick up on technology.
I highly recommend you explore your students wiki work. You can do so by clicking on your student's period below.
