Student Publishing Wiki
20 11 2007
As I approach a new session of my after school publishing program, I decided to use a wiki to see if I could help make the process clearer to students and give them more opportunities to work independently. My Edison Student Publishers Wiki includes information about the program, and tips to help my 3rd-5th grade students:
- Choose a Project – news, reviews, interviews, puzzles, comics, jokes, etc.
- Find News or Information – web sites, people, papers, etc.
- Find Help with Writing – news, poetry, fiction, more
- Find or Make Images – photos, drawings, online tools, more
- Make a Puzzle – links to puzzlemaker, our puzzle starters and more
- Work on Layout – under construction
I’m excited about how this program is evolving and the wonderful, creative work kids can do. I’m new to wikis and I think this may be the first one I’ve done that approaches being useful! I’d love any feedback or suggestions on improving this kind of resource.
