Kate Erdosy replied to Martha Lipold's discussion Anyone with experience/advice on using a class scribe to post to class wiki?"Kev,
Your website is great. I have created a wiki on wikispaces and I want my kids to write a blog entry each week. My question to you is - I want their entry to appear like a blog on the wiki, with a button for comments, etc. Is that possible with…"

You can upload almost anything as a link or file, and it is exceptionally easy. Initial set-up time would be about 10 minutes, even for a beginner."

It works like twitter but it has an enhanced security. Try it instead of a wiki or any other web-based application.

Is a class Wiki the easiest tool to publish class updates, list assignments, post handouts and presentations? Flu season is gearing up and I have a student who has missed his third consecutive day of school so far. I need to come up with a way to publish to keep absent students updated as well as provide a resource for all my students and their parents to check homework assignments or for resource materials.

Some of your questions might be answered on the FAQ page of the site (http://mrroughton.com/faq.aspx).

"Kev - I checked out your blog and I'm so impressed and inspired by what you've posted. Your work is beautiful. How often and for how long do your classes meet weekly. It appears that this is not a typical 45-min per day, 5 days per week…"
Kev replied to Martha Lipold's discussion Anyone with experience/advice on using a class scribe to post to class wiki?"I do this with my blog. I take student volunteers each day to do a short write up of what we did in class. They don't typically summarize the notes as those are available online anyway. Instead they mention the topic and post a more personal…"
Anyone with experience/advice on using a class scribe to post to class wiki?
I teach seventh grade science (biology) at a school that supports technology strongly. As I read through the various postings, I start brainstorming valuable uses for various technologies. I've checked out several middle school class wikis and am thinking of changing the way that I use wikis with my students.My idea is to appoint a student each day to be the class scribe. That students job that evening is to summarize and post the events and notes from that day's class on the wiki.My students…See More
"Keep me posted. I haven't used blogs yet - I teach 6th and 7th grade science in a very technology-rich environment. I'm interested in seeing what you do - and possibly setting up some sort of connection. I'm a little skeptical so far…"
"I just completed week one of year 22. Teaching continues to be a rewarding, fun career. I love MOST OF ALL connecting with my sixth and seventh grade science students. I have a real love for the honesty and awkwardness of the middle school student.…"
