Thing #16

Wikis are wonderful. I can see so many applications for using a wiki. One way is for our CIT (Campus Improvement Team) to create a wiki just for the different discussions we have monthly. We do not take formal notes in the meetings and this would be a great way to have the grade level leaders go back to their groups for the input that our Principal needs. Each group could just cite it on the wiki and it would cut down on the emailing back and forth.
I can also see this being used with our Bronco Lunch Bunch groups. The lunch bunch is our book club. Students, parents and teachers just need to have read the book by the date and then we bring our lunches into the library for an extended period and eat and discuss the books. I am thinking we could have the students create a wiki entry for each book centered around a question or two prior to the lunch bunch date.
The possibilities for wikis are limitless.
