Nice job, Robin. I like the way you kept the instructions simple and direct, used both screen shots of your wiki and also integrated the video. No point reinventing the wheel! However, do check that the video is not blocked by your district iunternet access. Joan Robin, nice and simple and to the point. I hope I didn't over-do it on mine! I used the same video Wikis in Plain English. I really thought that clearly stated, with visuals, what a wiki can do. - Kate Hoppenjans Loved the contract, Robin! Excellent job searching on the web. And yes, I copied the link to the contract. Thanks! Susan 2/22 ​ Robin, I also like the simple and direct instructions - I think students will tune out or gloss over too many words! Thanks, too, for the contract - I had seen that in my travels, but neglected to bookmark it - this time I have it - thanks! Vanessa 2/23

[|Using the Class Wiki.ppt] Danielle Brown Danielle, I liked how you brought to the students' attention the difference between the 1st two screen shots. I was wondering why you had put the same shot in twice myself until I read the next screen! Nice way to get them thinking critically! - Kate Hoppenjans Really smooth introduction to the wiki with sign in instructions, Danielle! And again, I liked the critical thinking and "think-pair-share" aspect of the PowerPoint. Great job integrating technology and collaborative work! Susan 2/22 Hi Danielle, This is a very clear and entertaining presentation. You certainly grab student's attention. Since I teach your students also, I will definitely assign wiki homework to your students. Pamela Chang 2/22
