Thing # 16

Wiki's are cool! I had no idea what a wiki was before this lesson. I can really see the applications being easy to use. My favorite ideas were idea one and four.

Idea 1- collaborative note taking, where everyone pitches in and adds a fact or two about a topic. This one would be easy to set up and can be used on just about any topic. My GT students are going to be studying Enigmas this year and they could 1.)list all the enigmas they've heard about, ( i.e. bigfoot, lockness monster, chupacabra, nazca lines, marfa lights, etc. ).2.) Then they could each add what they think they know about the each one. 3.) After researching, they could add what they learned about them. 4.) After they have finished with that, idea four can come into play with trading cards. They can make a trading card on each of the enigmas that they learned about.
