Student Created ContentThis is a featured page

What makes a wiki special, and so much greater than a traditional website, is that students have the power and ability to create the content that makes up the bulk of your site. Through the "Easy Edit" feature, anyone (it's up to you whether contributors have to be registered users or not) can contribute to the content of your site.

For example:

  • Students can connect the content being learned to what's going on in the news.
    • Example: Once per unit, students are required to post a link to an article from the news relating to the topics covered that unit

  • Students can extend in-class debates and discussion in an online forum.
