Wikis for Classroom Use:

I found a site that students made that was about whitewater rafting. It was really cool because all the students use their knowledge about whitewater rafting. Then also they will go look up material on the internet that will help them put information on the wiki that it doesn't already have on it. This will help in group discussions and get all the kids involved. I like the way wikis work because everyone can get involved. The different ways I will use the wiki to help me to teach sports related material and help me to see how much my students know about certain sports. It will be really fun if I had a sport and I told all my students to do a report on the sport. Then after they all finish their report have them work on a wiki together because in their report they are going to more than likely have different information in there.
