Wikis
I was excited to get to this "thing" because I think Wikis are incredibly useful and I use them frequently. The thing I love most about Wikis is the feature that allows multiple authors to contribute. It's a great way to facilitate communication within a class and between teachers and students. I think starting a wiki on a topic and having students search for and add information is a great way to introduce a topic and have students contribute their preknowledge. Also, on a sidenote, I recently just started using a wikispace to keep up with a group from my church that meets every Sunday night at my house and its been an incredible way to efficiently disseminate information throughout the group and provide a space for discussion.

About Me
- Jess
- I am a middle school math teacher at Spring Forest Middle School in SBISD. People always give me a crazy look when I tell them I teach middle school, and a look of complete disgust when I add "math". But I love it and firmly believe that a smile and good sense of humor is all it takes.
