Thing #16 - Wikis

Now I see where Wikipedia gets its name--duh. I really didn't understand the concept of wikis until now. It is a great collaborative tool. I liked how I was given several resources to explore and I always enjoy the CommonCraft videos. When I saw the camping trip scenerio, it gave me a better way to coordinate our upcoming family reunion. As for the classroom, I liked the suggestion about writing essays from entries and creating top 10 lists. Wat a great way to get kids to "play" ---work. It's like giving a kid his veggies, but not letting him know they're healthy.
