I never knew wiki extended past looking up information on the internet. I knew it was a collection of information that could be factual or not and that people could change and update information. I was told by colleagues that it can be a good source of information but not to treat it as an exact source of knowledge.
After browsing some of the wikis I was excited to see it being for classroom notes, projects and schedules as in FHS Wolves Den. I could see this working in my classroom if all my students had home computers. The wiki that I thought was set up well and easy to follow was Room 15 Wiki. Though you had to navigate from the existing link to the new link this wiki looked professional done. Everything had easy icons to follow. Schools in the Past I thought was a great idea but it was hard to follow. Everything was organized just by topic and lacked illustrations. It was set up more like a blog. I really liked the code blue wiki or at least the link on Yucky Gross and Cool Body Systems. These are the questions that my students ask all the time. I'm going to use this link in the future.

Mr. Lindsay of room 15 is one busy man. His wiki is a great resource for students and parents.
