Tool #6

Wikis are a great tool for going paperless in lots of our work as administrators and teachers. Usually, we share copies of school supplies lists, agendas for meetings, checklists, rubrics, etc. and we can share them through this tool. I can envision putting the handbook on the google site and sharing it with the assistant principals and ILT before publishing. This would save lots of time and effort in editing the script. We could add the textbook and guided reading inventories to this and make them accessible to teachers. I looked at the educational origami wiki and liked the Lego Robotics activities described. We're always looking for interesting problem solving activities which can be included in our after school program. This could be a possibility.
