Got an innovative use of educational technology to share?
We hear and read a great deal about new tools and ideas which COULD be tried with students to expand and improve opportunities for learning. The focus of this group is on sharing ACTUAL classroom practices with educational technologies which have worked, failed, or been attempted with some improvement needed. Sir Ken Robinson says if we're never willing to be wrong, we can never do anything creative. This group is focused on sharing moments of instructional risk-taking using technology with students and teachers. Let's learn from and support each other in this process.

Greetings fellow educators
I have just begun working with, and introducing to my students, a wiki for classroom use. So far, we have used it to share personal interests and likes/dislikes re: math and science (the content which I teach). Today, we attempted to begin a page that will be shared with classroom newcomers regarding our VADOE-provided internet search engine, nettrekker.com.
The students, for the most part, are liking the new 'freedom' to post their thoughts and opinions on the wiki, and use their choice of fonts and background colors, etc.
Have any of you ever used a wiki in the classroom?

Hi, Alice. Like you, I find the gifts feature much too silly and Facebook-like. You can easily remove it by clicking the "remove the gifts feature" link from the Gifts icon on your Manage page. Cheers.
