I can imagine it would become something we could all use with our staffs (for PD or a just an interesting link) once it was finished?! <BR/><BR/>RondaRondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01698101129202811461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533911671732872493.post-45844879255472194562008-03-12T18:27:00.000-07:002008-03-12T18:27:00.000-07:00Loved your comic about answering in your own words...Loved your comic about answering in your own words... great loophole! It reminds me of the student who thought of 6 different ways to measure the height of a certain building - using a barometer. His final suggestion, as I recall, was: Find the janitor (or was it the architect?) of the building and say, "I will give you this barometer if you can tell me the height of your building."<BR/><BR/>Liked your comment, too, about how wikis might encourage people to comment whereas they might remain silent in a physical setting. It made me think of how wikis can extend discussion past the classroom/meeting hours as well.Linda Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09249056610623998197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533911671732872493.post-61050137469491494742008-03-11T14:33:00.000-07:002008-03-11T14:33:00.000-07:00Elisa,I agree with you, pbwiki is more user friend...Elisa,<BR/>I agree with you, pbwiki is more user friendly. The fine print on Wikispaces where it says "Join this wiki" is the culprit for your party starting late. It is hard to see and people miss it. It was a great party though! I think it is interesting how the google ads on your wiki are about ebooks-how do they do that?elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06929237275893310292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533911671732872493.post-36779550542264060722008-03-11T11:04:00.000-07:002008-03-11T11:04:00.000-07:00Hi Elisa,I'm sorry for not coming to your party! ...Hi Elisa,<BR/>I'm sorry for not coming to your party! I tried, but I couldn't get in. Cindy and I had thought of using wikispaces as well, but one of her children suggested pbwiki instead and my "computer geeky" brother said the same thing, so that's what we went with. <BR/><BR/>I like your suggestions for the assignment too- I hope they consider it for next time.<BR/><BR/>KatieKatiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07633685886073627258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533911671732872493.post-20709805597430310362008-03-11T10:38:00.000-07:002008-03-11T10:38:00.000-07:00Hi Elisa: It was so great meeting for coffee this ...Hi Elisa: It was so great meeting for coffee this weekend. I really enjoyed it as I can now envision exactly whom I'm chatting with. <BR/><BR/>Sorry to be so late showing up to your party. Thanks for hosting it.<BR/><BR/>I too like the idea of even more people being involved in the collaborative wiki. Food for thought.<BR/>Cheers<BR/>ValVal Martineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03951314982340724402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533911671732872493.post-58087079589935609162008-03-10T09:57:00.000-07:002008-03-10T09:57:00.000-07:00Hi Elisa,Great suggestions!

I will pass this on to Joanne and perhaps she can do something of what you suggested during the "getting started" section of the course and then continue it.<BR/><BR/>JennJennifer Branch-Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09057805189334365941noreply@blogger.com
