I enjoyed reading about Wiki Wiki Teaching. It discusses what wiki's are about and it also discusses how a teacher trained her students to use wiki's. It was very interesting as to how involved the students became with this. I looked through the Code Blue wiki and found it to be very interesting. It was a wiki that information related to the human body and lots of medical websites. The students could go to various websites to find anything they needed regarding the human body. I also like another wiki called FHS Wolves Den. It had a lot of great information for an English and History class. It had a sidebar for history and English notes, a project sidebar and a sidebar for games. The Wolves Den had a lot of sidebars to direct the students to lots of information they could use for either subject. There were also several websites the students could go to for History information.
I looked at several wikis and was very impressed with the way most of them were set up. I have started a wiki for my PE classes, but I have not finished the finalization of it yet. I made it for the kids to get daily exercises from it to do at home. The wiki site is Coach Quinn PE. At Terry Middle School we have a website that our coaches update for our athletes and parents to refer to for schedules, calendars and other information regarding TMS athletics. I have enjoyed learning about wikis because I hope to make my PE wiki better.
