Monday, April 26 – – Learning to Wiki

I hope everyone is feeling refreshed after this glorious week of spring break. This week will be our last before the big trip to Washington, D.C. – and it will be packed.

Monday &Tuesday: We will be in the computer lab learning how to create and use a wiki. A wiki allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Students will be working in groups to collect and present information. All students, whether there are staying here or going to D.C., will be using a wiki to complete their assignments next week. Here is a link to the PBWorks BFMS8 Wiki page, which also includes the assignments.

Wednesday: Follow up on wikis, if needed. Otherwise we will continue Project Citizen.

Thursday & Friday: Project Citizen students should complete and type all four parts of their assignment and begin laying out their presentation boards and speeches.

Homework: There will be at least one reflection due this week. Project Citizen folks will most likely have homework completing the the above assignments.
