A wiki is a page or collection of Web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. Wikispaces then, is built to work anywhere, anytime. All you need is a web browser and an Internet connection. Members can create pages and spaces without undue restrictions or rules. Guests can edit pages without creating an account. Wiki pages are fully internationalized, so you can contribute content in any language you like. Wikispaces gives groups the freedom to publish pages that are long-lived, regularly updated, and built by many contributors. It gives you the space to both publish and discuss content, without tangling the two together. Wikispaces is designed to be usable for everyone. A visual editor is utilized to let you see the layout and design of your page while you're editing it. No technical knowledge is required. And Wikispaces is fast even in large communities with lots of activity.

This site is a great place to start using wikis. Wikis allow you to post information and collaborate with others on topics. By allowing others to see the wiki you have created, they have the opportunity to edit the information and add to it. This would be a great way to work with others via the internet. This site allows for a lot of possibilities.

This wiki contains lots of ideas and information for librarians. Anyone can add or edit topics. The nice thing about this site is that it is very organized. If you want information about a certain topic, it is easy to find.

This is a great resource for the introduction of wikis. It describes possible ways they can be used in the classroom, a list of quality educational wikis already in existence, and it has a discussion board to post comments or questions.

A host of information and links for connecting librarians. This site contains lessons, units, handouts, rubrics, presentations, and teaching tips. A great place to share and learn.

A wiki just for librarians to take from others and share their own ideas and insights.

Wikibooks is a Wikimedia community for creating a free library of educational textbooks that anyone can edit.

Welcome to the Directory of Australian Edubloggers. The password to edit this site is teacher . The purpose of this site is to put people in contact with like minded people. It was set up in 2005 by Jo McLeay, of The Open Classroom. There are some other sites of interest also: the Oz/NZ Educators Group and a collection of resources. I believe this would benefit those who want to reach out and become more digitally literate.

This wiki was created to help educators find others in their field or area of interest on Twitter. You can choose a subject area or your grade level.

Stephanie, can you contact me through my personal email: pittss11@yahoo.com I am having HUGE difficulties getting email to work through ANGEL and would really like to discuss our project due in April. Thanks, David Pitts

This is just the first step in making education and technology more engaging for educators and students! Glogster is also a perfect web 2.0 tool for your learning and your WIKIs. Glogster provides master-accounts for teachers integrating all student accounts, which are kept private! Mix graphics, photos, videos, music and text into slick Glogs.

This site helps explain the basics of web 2.0 tools to a technology immigrant. It is a great site that would allow educators who are scared to learn about technology, because it is a very simple site that would teach them about what students are using today.

A tutorial that was designed by the California School Library Association (CSLA) 2.0 Team. You will learn the tools of the new Internet: Web 2.0 tools that are bringing our kids in touch with the entire world through social networking, wikis, video, podcasting, and gaming sites. One of the links is for the classroom; the other is specifically for librarians!

A podcasting resource website by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This is a site for novice and expert. There are tutorials, FAQ, lessons, websites for uploading or downloading podcasts. I have taken a podcasting class but didn't know about this reference. The websites listed at this URL that I checked still work. If I had someone who wanted to learn how to podcast, I believe this would be one of the sites I would suggest.

A wiki about everything from videos to widgets, graphing to collaboration

I like that this site is organised so nicely and is very user friendly.

This is a website that has links to online popular resources such as Jing, Ning, YouTube, voicethread and many more. They are organized in a visual that makes it very appealing.

This was a great site I stumbled across last Fall. Great uses and great tools to search for curriculum, along with connecting with other teachers.

Loads and loads of fun resources to for students and teachers to use in the classroom.
