Course Wikipedia
The workshops provide a forum for working up ideas about teaching, which will also be shared with the class through an online Wikipedia, which is a quick and easy way to put up, and revise, materials on the Web. This will enable students to share their work with the whole class, for use in their practicum and afterwards. The plan: (1) Students post an initial version of their lessons (see Lesson Format) on the Wiki the night before presenting it in the workshop. (2) The lesson and related materials on the Wiki (e.,g., a poem) can be projected during workshop class. (3) After the workshop, all students will have the opportunity to contribute further ideas to the development of the lesson, using the Wiki “comment” function. (4) The students presenters can revise online lessons, which will then be assessed by the instructors within a week of its presentation, with opportunities to “resubmit” posted lessons to the instructors.
