Well I have signed up for this free online course and from what I have seen so far it is a lot of online reading .They said 20 minutes maximum but since I have been reading their email and visiting different web pages for information, especially designed for those of us who need more help, I have taken a lot of time. I was surprised to see names of people who I know from our land(not my present colleagues) who have signed up to do the course. I encourage my reading colleagues to do it since it seems to be at your own pace. Their theme is collaboration, communication and committment(?).
From what I have read on wikis I think that it is an interesting tool that librarians, not only teachers can use. It might do us good to suggest to our administration that our librarians in schools plan to use this with the students since the libraries are fitted with computers and linked to the internet. I heard Mrs Jackson Woods mention that they are currently doing a course /training workshop with school librarians and I was glad to hear that since we teachers can now partner with our librarians to get students to begin to work with wikis. I am wondering about the computers that have been promised to our form one students and how our hopes for this will play out. I think that we can start with one class and move on from there.What do you think?
