Welcome to Your New Wiki!
What is a wiki?
Wiki is in Ward's original description: The simplest online database that could possibly work.
Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly.
Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.
Like many simple concepts, "open editing" has some profound and subtle effects on Wiki usage. Allowing everyday users to create and edit any page in a Web site is exciting in that it encourages democratic use of the Web and promotes content composition by nontechnical users.

This page is designed as a "how to start up and use wikispaces". If you are wanting to start a wiki of your own, follow these steps...
1. Create an account by providing your e-mail address and a username, along with a password.
2. Add your students. If your wiki is set to "private", they will need their own usernames and passwords in order to access the site. If, however, you keep your wiki "public", then no username or password is required as anyone can access the site. (Note: usually "private" sites are by subsription, but if you e-mail wikispaces and tell them the space is set up for K-12 education purposes, they will make it "private", for free!)
