Here is another resource for thinking about the hows and whys of using wikis in the classroom: http://www.innovateonline.info/index.php?view=article&id=258 With all technologies there needs to be some time set aside for getting used to the tools. Wiki software is pretty generic, but some tools seem a bit more user friendly than others. If you would like to explore on your own please use the IdeasUnleashed sandbox wiki on the front page of the Ideas Unleashed home page (http://ideasunleashed.org). we have include some instructions there for you as well. Try it out! Let us know what you think! Barbara Craig and Jeff and John:

At the Januray 20th summit, we really just touched on the use of wiki's. I got on to try to play with it and found the text entry to be somewhat cumbersonme. It wouldn't surprise me if I was doing it quite wrong. When I return from NYC I am going to sketch out the framework for what such a wiki might look like. Please let me know what you think.

One example of how it works is the <a> project. Under this concept, teachers using UDL in classrooms across Lorain County could post their curriculum on the wiki allowing others to use it and ammend it to their specific needs. That is a prime example of not having to reinvent the wheel.</a> Craig and Jeff
