Wikis

Do you want to create a special website for your classroom? Or would you like to use what other teachers are sharing with their students? Check out these WIKIS! If you have your own wiki or know of one that you'd like to share, please email the link and any comments to jswan@akron.k12.oh.us

What is a "wiki"?

A wiki is a space on the Web where you can share work and ideas, pictures and links, videos and media — and anything else you can think of. Wikispaces is special because we give you a visual editor and a bunch of other tools to make sharing all kinds of content as easy for students as it is for their teachers.
