//**What is a wiki? **// (insert bad joke here) A wiki is a web site that lets others join in to create and edit the content. All you need is a computer with an internet connection. Wikis are always changing as people add to it.  As the manager of this wiki I can accept you, but also 'lock' any pages so that you can't change (including delete) those pages. A useful feature for your wiki. You'll be able to allow the students to edit some pages but not others. You can also view a page's history to see who did what, and to undo any major accidental deletions. __Some questions that you will need to decide on__  __Need to:__  __Some more info. for you to check out__ [|Digital Literacy website] [|TeacherTube videos on wikispaces support] [|How to set up wiki videos] Code Blue wiki created by yr6 [|Features of wikis] Frequently asked questions
 * 1) Are your classes working together to build up information on each decade?
 * 2) Will one group from each class be sharing a photo (decade? year?) with matching groups in the other classes? ...meaning that four groups will be researching the life and times of the family photo taken in 1880 as an example
 * If this is the case each group can research a facet of the times of that era and post to wiki for other groups to use in their Voicethread presentation.
 * Add users by adding student emails
 * Set up wiki wide notifications using email or google reader so that you're aware of changes to wiki by students
 * Start adding resources to resource page for students to access
 * Decide on what you want for student outcomes (rubric?)
