Compiled+brainstorming+list

//This list was created by the participants of the Wikis part one training on September 17th. The ideas generated are fabulous and can frequently be applied to a variety of subject areas. // · Communicate with the Ambassador group and facilitate meetings & organization of the various activities that they do!—JF · Character development--students will feel successful about using technology, the reader function can read the wiki back to them, student-driven learning ~SP ·  Fulfills components of students' IEP ~SP ·  Receive immediate feedback from both teacher and other students ~SP ·  Use as research project rather than a multi-paragraph essay (they still have to cite their sources) ~SP ·  Use as a collaborative discussion (replacement of a Socratic seminar). ~SP ·  English 10-Lord of the Flies--Form "tribes" in two different classes. (one class is large enough to have two tribes, the second class is small and will make up the third tribe). The tribes will participate in threaded discussions within the wiki to compete to be the most civilized tribe by using citations from the book and real life examples. ~SP ·  Students read an article supplied by the teacher and they have to respond via the wiki. Teacher just goes to one place to grade the entire class' responses. ~MM · Use wikis to communicate and discuss curriculum ideas · An AP essay could be posted and the students can add their responses which can be viewed by the whole class. Students who are weak writers could use stronger responses as models. ·  English students can post questions they have about the texts they are reading and ask for answers from classmates. ·  Art teachers can post art demos for students to watch. · A way to keep a record of how the stage designers collaborate with play directors to create a play ~JS ·  Groups can collaborate to research a time period in history for theatre production ~JS
