Week 7!

Here a wiki, there a wiki, everywhere a wiki, wiki.

Since I've only created webpages in html and now on a wiki, this is a dramatic change in the ease of the process in a short time! How wonderful to be able to add content to a webpage so easily. I can see a page for staff picks/favorites (wouldn't that be fun!) Or what about the computer instructors having all their lesson plans on a wiki?

We produce so many documents where multiple people are contributing--reports, budget preparation work, etc. How much easier to put it all up in one place and edit it rather than emailing files back and forth.

I must admit that the actual doing was harder than I expected in the Sandbox. Once someone has done the set-up, then I think it's easy to add. But obviously someone has to do some thinking about setting up the overall organizational and visual structure of the pages--or as some of the pages on the PLCMC wiki demonstrate, it can get very messy, very quickly.
