Wiki's as tools for colleboration

It was interesting to first understand the purpose of the wiki and its definition. So what ever wiki that you can create for yourself is that you need to know that its about the sharing of knowledge. Also what is so interesting about it is that can be edited and anyone can be able to contribute., and is an tracking record for the history part. What also have been suggested to class is that in our schools we can be able to control our wiki so as to avoid learners to contribute or write irrelevant staff which are out of the particular given topic. I think it more important to have topic in this way learners will be able to learn how to stick on their topic when they are writing their essay in class as well. Remember our role as school librarians is to inculcate the culture of reading and knowledge. There also advantages that were also stated with regard the wiki that they are more and easily understandable can be easily up dated. We were then given someone wiki sites that can help us when we are creating our own school wikis. Three different wiki that we were shown such as wiki space.co which has wiki in education and wiki in classroom, pb works.com and wikis ineducation. So they seems to give some guidelines on how to create our won wiki school sites Very informative lecture which I've enjoyed today. Even though was very tired coming from the national march in Cape Town.

Todays lecturer

Today's lecturer I was able to manage to get some information or knwoldge regarding the website. At llist one thing that I'm happy is the part that you can make colours for your emails when you are writng or emailing. I rember one day when somebody send me an email it was with coulors and thought only those who are working in cooparate companies that is the prveviladge that they can get. And today when Sannd showed us I fell little beat embarased. Knowldge is power. I'm happy that I diddn't share this with anyone. As in now I'm practising that skill, as you will see my blogg is quite different from your.Haaaaaa. I'm the master. The other part was the different types of list and its terminology. And the most part is how to protect yourself against spam. As I normally get more of that.

internet filtering lecture

This lecture was quite interesting that it shows the good and bad that we can get from Internet filtering. though at some point was beat frustrated as my computer has just cut itself off. Had to look from the lecturers slides, though my heart was still yearning for my own computer to reconnect. As the person who is short sighted I feel very comfortable to have my own computer to look this very closely. I end up loosing my focus as I was just keep trying my computer as the result I end up going up and down looking for the one I can be able to use. What cross my mind out of the whole entire things is that sometimes we can behave like school learners. While you are teaching you find them roaming around the class looking for a pen even if you didn't ask them to write something. And I just felt that it is important to check their staff if the are working properly as they will not give you your full attention as long as what is bothering them have not been solved. We can indeed behave like learners, I wonder if that is because of the environment or our human mind work the same irrespective of an age.
