Wikity Wak

Hey Everyone. Well, it certainly has been a while. While off thinking deep and thinking different, I found myself quite distracted. While in my distracted state, I did begin to explore the world of wikis and learned quite a bit.

In exploring the wiki of the high school where I teach, Grand Blanc High School, I was surprised to see the wealth of information that was included. However, as with many wikis, information can be misleading or outdated. I decided to update a few things including changes in administration, as well as some interesting background information on the division of the two campuses. This Wikipedia entry can be seen here-- and at this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Blanc_High_School



I also had the opportunity to create my own Wiki. My English 9 colleagues will be teaching a new unit next year of the book, Night. This wiki provides a workspace for us to share our ideas and lesson plans to come up with a solid, effective, unified unit. Hopefully we use the space well. Here's the link

Check out these wikis, learn a thing or two, and keep on thinking deep and thinking different!
