Design Your Wiki Today you will use your class period to design the basic framework for your wiki. Begin thinking about your content. The content of your wiki is the "heart" of your wiki. Listed below is a link that will take you to a list if wikis. You can read and see the purpose of each wiki. I strongly encourage you to read and explore these samples. Pay attention to their design and how they are set up. Beginning with a good design and a purpose will make things MUCH easier for you as we continue with this project. Use this time to plan up front so you don't find yourself having to recreate as we go. Have fun and be creative!
TASK: Design your "HOME" page. Write a full description (minimum of 2 complete paragraphs) describing the purpose/objective of your wiki. Ask yourself this question: Will my wiki make a difference? -Change the Look and Feel of your wiki -Go to "Manage My Wiki" -->Settings-->Look and Feel to change the design -Change the LOGO of your Wiki. See directions above to change logo
We will not invite other people or change the permissions (keep your wiki private) until we have some content.
