CED535 Week 2

I really enjoyed Chapter 4 about Wikis. I feel like my whole view on them has changed. I thought it was cool that Harvard did a study and posted information that wasn't factual on different sites. It only took Wikipedia a couple hours to correct the errors. I was shocked and pleased to see that the site is credible. I would definitely use it and I didn't before. While reading the chapter some great ideas popped in head. I know how much parents love to know what their child did at school, but getting the day out of them is like pulling teeth. I know when I ask my stepson how his day was, he just says fine. If I say what did you do today at school, he will say I don't know.....stuff. UGH
I use my Flip to record some of our service projects and field trips. I thought it would be cool to have a class Wiki of things we do. It could be pictures and videos of our field trips, service projects, in school projects, or class parties. I know parents would enjoy watching those types of things. It makes them feel good to see their child having fun, learning, and contributing to the community. Setting up a class Wiki is definitely on my "to do" list!!
