Tell how you might use your wiki with students.
I discovered that Wiki web sites can be used as an "unlocked" site to share ideas with your friends or plan activities. This can be a temporary or permanent Wiki depending on whether or not you plan to use the activity again. I can see making a Wiki like this to have teachers add their opinions about specific topics that pertain to each of their grade levels or classrooms.
A Wiki can also be a "locked" web site used to create lessons that teachers, administrators, librarians, etc. plan to use again and again to instruct specific topics and audiences. The Wiki I created was about a lesson on teaching teachers and students what questions to ask in order to validate the information on websites. I decided to lock this document because I did not want anyone changing the information, documents or pages of my lesson by accident. The option to leave a discussion question is still available, but as a librarian I can reuse this Wiki following school years to come.
I am very excited about using this Wiki this year as well as learning more ingenious ways to incorporate them into my library lessons. The link to my Wiki is: http://sle-library.wikispaces.com/
Enjoy!
