 * Jordan Taylor** - My wiki will be used as a math resource for my students, parents, and/or other teachers. The pages on my wiki include: Math in the Real World, Math Vocabulary Words, Strategies and Websites, and Word Problems. MrsTaylorsMathWiki


 * Alacia Herring**- This is a brand new wiki for me. Right now I am just treating it like a web page and posting some pictures of my children and adding some resources for my parents to use such as: You Tube videos we watch in class and sight word frequency charts to practice at home. Mrs. Alacia's Kindergarten


 * Neil Burnfin ** - This wiki will be used as a discussion/problem-solving space for Instructional Technology Specialists in Rockdale County. We need a way to collaborate besides e-mail. RCPSTechnopedia

I Spy Biology Wiki
 * Paulette Allard** - This wiki will be used as a place for students to post photographs that they take of "life" as they learn that biology is an every day experience . In addition to images, students will add facts about the subject matter and which GPS standards apply to to their entry. I provided a sample page on the wiki called, "I love lichens" to help them get started.

BrownsWikis
 * Christen Brown**- I plan on using this wiki in order to communicate with parents and inform them of upcoming tests, field trips, family nights, book fairs, etc.


 * Kristyn Nelms** - This wiki will be used as a source of communication between myself, students, and parents. It will be used to share information about the content being taught in the classroom, school events, and various other school related information . nelmsmath


 * Alan Coleman** - The plan for this wiki is to use it to inform the transformation of the media center at Wesley Lakes ES. As of now, we are a very traditional media center, focused on reading, with a smattering of technology thrown in sporadically. My principal and I feel we need to morph the media center into an environment that reflects the current //learning commons// trend; not because it is trendy, but because of the robust learning environment that results from such a well-informed transformation. Please visit the 21st Century Libratory.

davidcatrowvisit
 * Amy Bross-** This wiki will be used by myself and 5 other media specialist that are working together to plan an author visit. We will use this to update information and share ideas.

https://rossesol.wikispaces.com/
 * Emily Ross-** This wiki will be used in my high school ESOL class. It is designed to help my current students, future students, and me with organization and accommodations in all the academic classes at the high school. This site will be a collection of resources for ESOL students to use in their academic classes. These resources will help students in the areas on listening, speaking, reading, and writing of academic vocabulary in the content areas. It will also help me for years to come with future students so that I can quickly find ways to support my students in all their classes.


 * Julie Atkinson** - This wiki will be used to collaborate with other teachers while writing reading units for fourth grade. I hope this site will be a hub for ideas, technology resources, and websites. Visit Mrs. Atkinson's Wiki page.


 * Sterling Hope** - I now have three wikis. One for my school, one for my classroom (very underused) and now one for my Ed.S. I am hoping that I can incorporate more of the Wiki into my practice. It's a great way to collaborate. Here's the one for this program. HopeEDStechnology Wiki.


 * Jennifer Burke** - This is the first wiki I have created, although I am looking forward to using wikis a lot more in the library. I created https://CPERousingReaders.wikispaces.com so the members of my Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl team can discuss books and post questions as we get ready to compete in January against other Atlanta schools. I might let parents play, too, since I need help reading the books and making up questions. I think I’m going to like being able to assess student engagement on the wiki. I can use wikis for all kinds of projects in the media center, from reading recommendations to collaborative projects with teachers. Instead of having students turn in assignments to me, they can log in and post their work to share with the world.

My wiki is called Photo Editing Workshop.
 * Randi Brown** - This is the first wiki that I have created. I do not have a classroom, so I had to really think about how could use a wiki effectively. I decided to create a wiki that I could use with students at all of the schools I serve. My wiki will be used for students who participate in our technology fair and want to compete in the photo editing category. I will use my wiki with the students to help them understand common photo editing terminology as well as share many Web 2.0 tools that can be used for photo editing.


 * T. Michael Rewis** - I am very excited about my first wiki and cannot wait to start incorporating this into my classroom. My wiki will serve as a place for students to post their work, maintain a journal of work performed, collaborate as a class on topics, connect with professionals in the field. My wiki is called GrayVideo.


 * Ruben Barkley** - Like some of my other colleagues in the cohort, this is my first time actually creating and structuring a wiki independently. Nevertheless, I have decided to create my wiki to share a //**"Technology Integration (TI) Tip Of The Week"**// with my friends and colleagues. With that being said, my first TI Tip Of The Week will focus on registering ActiVotes for Mac Operating System (iOS) users. Many of my schools have invested in these "learner response" devices and I would like to see my teachers fully integrating them into their instruction. In-Service-Module 1

= = https://solarsysteminformation.wikispaces.com/ = = This wiki will be used as a platform for collaboration for the multiple 9th grade teachers at my school. Rather than emailing documents during the time between our biweekly meetings, we will post activities we will be using in class to the wiki so that others can adapt or adopt. The page will eventually be made private and accessible to only the 9th grade literature teachers and other invited guests so that tests can be uploaded without the risk of students having access. = W04 = I will use this site to share resources that I find to be beneficial with ESL students. Oftentimes, teachers ask me about sites. When I tell them, I have to find something to write the site down. With the use of this site, I will no longer have to write the site down. I can just refer them to the wiki that has several sites that they may find beneficial.
 * Heather Brown**- This is the first time creating a wiki. I plan to use the wiki to inform my students, parents, and other educators about important topics that occur in my math classroom. I plan to announce tests, homework, and other important announcements. I have also provided links to help during homework and a list of the CCGPS Math Standards.MrsBrownsWikiPage
 * Scarlet Collett** - I am still trying to gain an understanding of how to use Wikis with my students. I am getting ready to have students research different planets in our solar system. I think instead of having them get up and do a Powerpoint presentation this will be where they will put their information for all of us to see.
 * Sarah Barnett** 9th Lit. Woodland
 * Kimberly Ray**- @eslkimray.wikispaces.com

I had entered this before but it disappeared. The wiki I have created is for my social studies class. I will use it for resource for my students but also a tool for projects. I have one class creating a study hall for my other classes. One class will also be creating wikis as part of a project.
 * Christa Evans Heath** Heath wiki '


 * Jenny Vowell** - I have created a wiki called Plan On It. This wiki space will be used to help students and parents plan the move from high school to college. I plan on posting information about college entrance testing, interview with admissions counselors, student will post questions and pictures of college tours. I also want to have links to important websites like FAFSA.gov and GACollege411. I hope this wiki will become a source of great information for students and parents. planonit.wikispaces.com

https://mrshornes.wikispaces.com/
 * Ashley Horne**-This is my first experience with a Wiki. I have to admit, my mind is whirling thinking of all of the possible ways I could incorporate this into my class. One way that I plan on using this in my classroom is for collaboration with a group project. Maybe something that has to do with Romeo and Juliet. We could update it each week when we discuss the motifs that are being used. I might make another Wiki for my seniors. I am the senior class adviser and this would be a way my executive committee could meet without having to meet every week. It would also allow all seniors the chance to add ideas.

This is my third wiki but the first one not done under the umbrella of my district wikispace. My wiki is Friday Stem Specials @ WES. It will be a live report of happenings in our new STEM specials for grades 3-5 that we've added as a student choice for their Friday "specials" as we work towards our STEM certification. I will encourage teachers and students share the experiences as we integrate science, technology, engineering, and math into these fun and engaging "hands-on/minds-on" Friday mornings. It will be a great way to share with parents and everyone as well as a great way to document, gain feedback and reflect on the STEM lessons.
 * Vickie Sexton**


 * Lucy Thompson** - My wiki is PetetheCatVisit.wikispaces.com Eric Litwin, author of the Pete the Cat books, is coming to our school in October. I made this space for our teachers to share creative ideas for preparing our students for his visit.


 * Melanie Turner** - I created a wiki a few years ago for a computer lab instructor meeting here, but I created a new one for this class on Using QR Codes in the K-12 Classroom.

Jennifer Santi- I have never used a wiki before, so this is new to me. However, I am excited and have a few ideas for the wiki. I am planning to use it with a new course that I will be teaching next semester, Approaches to Learning. I'm not exactly sure what that will look like right now! Here is the link: https://santi-ibcc.wikispaces.com/

Jessica Webb - I plan on using this wiki to provide parents and students with important information, upcoming events, and resources (Math, ELA, Science, & Social Studies). I also hope to use some of the discussion topics to generate activities for my students to complete in class. The name of my wiki is WebbWorld. Here is the link: https://webbworld.wikispaces.com/

John Frohberg - I am also a wiki newbie. I am hoping that I can use this wiki in class to allow students to collaborate on notes and projects. I teach at a small school and have only 5 students in my Analytic Geometry class, so I will allow them to work together as a single team on most projects. The calendar function is a godsend for me. I often have announcements that I am supposed to make to my class that I forget to make. The ability to post to the calendar when i get the email reminders will keep my class and I both better connected. Here's the link: WMHS Analytic Geometry

Laura Gary-Michel On a scale from 1-10, I'm about a 8.5 for wiki experience. I have used wikis a great deal in the past. I haven't created a new one in about a year, but I have a few wikis that I turn to for help and information. I am a media specialist and the wiki I have hyperlinked here is a wiki I created with an economics and a government teacher at my school. It is a take off of the CIA World Book. This wiki was a culiminating project at the end of both of these courses. The students were to create a fictitious country and apply everything they had learned in government and economics to create a faux CIA World Book page. The students were assigned groups (you can see their groups in the left page bar. Each group has two pages of information to create. Go to the bottom of the Groups home page and the green buttons are hyperlinks to the other pages with the students work.) Group 21 is one I really enjoyed. http://mhmia-united-nations-of-pdp.wikispaces.com/

Kenya Ransey Teacher's Wiki World is the wiki I created for this class. I have created this wiki to be used as a collaborative sight for teachers to post ideas, lesson plans and resources. I am also a member of the wiki Productivity Tools for the Common Core Classroom, which is a collection of student-centered web 2.0 tools. When I joined the Tools wiki, I was told it was a wiki, but I didn't really know at the time about wikisi. Ironically, I was just looking for it last week in order to access some of its teaching/learning tools.

Cindy Smith I have used wikis before in class as a collaboration space and a project work space. I created this wiki for an RTI group that I will be working with in the mornings. My group of 4th graders will be developing the content for our school's morning news show. Students will each have a page on which to work together and to add content for the news broadcast. Students will be able to view each other's work to know what the other segments will be. Shark Watch News

Alena Zink Lives of Native Americans is a wiki created in a collaboration with another instructional technology specialist and a classroom teacher. This wiki is a completely developed multidisciplinary unit for second grade curriculum. It set to be a collaborative space for students to work throughout the lesson and collect research notes, publish writing, and comment on each other' work. Last page of the wiki is notes for teachers that include links to resources necessary to implement this unit.

Julie Umbarger Fifth Grade Bartow Math Teachers is my created wiki. I am a member of the Bartow County Math Curriculum Team that has been developing a set of year long units for every math teacher in Bartow County to follow. Other than our monthly meetings and via email, we have not been in communication with one another. As we move into the new development year I feel that using a wiki space would be very helpful in our collaboration efforts and eliminate the problems with trying to collaborate across a district by email. I also think that we would benefit from allowing other fifth grade teachers who are not working on our team the ability to be able to give us feedback about the units, share ideas that could possibly make our units better, or ask questions that they may have. Many of us work in schools where we are the only fifth grade math teacher and this will allow us to collaborate easily with one another.

Aghaku Ero realtalkeconomics is the wiki I want to use to test the waters with my students. I initially want my students to share specific concepts, vocabulary etc. that they have learned from the daily lessons and use the collection of journals, if you will, as a review tool. I intend to expand the wikispace to include projects and other collaborative activities.

WO5 Robert Meaders - The way I set up this Wiki, it will be used for two purposes. The primary purpose will be for students to create their understanding of the GPS Standards and Elements fir the class. For the past few years, students worked on Standards and Elements Journals. I take the GPS and break them out and have them write explanations for each broad standard and each specific element. By posting them on the Wiki, students can work together to build their understanding of the content rather than working in isolation on their individual papers. The other purpose is for teams to build and post their STEM Design Challenge Project where they will design their own Sustainable Civilization after playing SimCityEDU and basing their civilization on the concepts (Geography, Economics, Governance, and History) learned in 6th and 7th grade Social Studies. You may find my Wiki titled MeadersSocialStudies at https://meaderssocialstudies.wikispaces.com/. Please be nice. I am not the most creative and designing these things take much too long for it to be practical. I may need to delegate this to one of my more creative students to make it more appealing.

Kenya Ransey Teacher's Wiki World is the wiki I created for this class. I have created this wiki to be used as a collaborative sight for teachers to post ideas, lesson plans and resources. I am also a member of the wiki Productivity Tools for the Common Core Classroom, which is a collection of student-centered web 2.0 tools.

Mark Bullard

I am planning on using my Wiki page to list enrichment activities and and discussions that require students to showcase their writing skills that they are learning in class. My site is Mr. Bullard's ELA Page

Karen Leonard Leonard's Links was created to help my daughter and her classmates. My daughter is a 7th grade student who has dyslexia and is in a program called Directed Studies at our school. Her Language Arts teacher is amazing at finding ways to help the students become leaders among their peers. I thought they could first begin to build this site for their own benefit and then open it up to the remaining 7th grade students at our school. This site would allow them to post any websites they find that may help them as they begin to study new topics in the various content areas. I also have another Wiki, MPCS ePal Project, created from an ePal project I did a few years ago. It allowed my students to communicate with our ePals in Brazil, Denmark, Russia, and

Michael Tydings

My class is reading Romeo and Juliet right now. Though I will not be in class for the next two weeks (baby coming!), I think this will be a neat idea for students to have a voice towards the end of the play concerning who is to blame for the death of the two youngsters. I like to have this discussion in class, so rather than miss it, I can get students' point of view virtually. Here is The Blame Game.

Tara Schiedermayer - I have created this wiki to use with my reading groups in my two different reading classes. Each group (named after a planet) will have their own space to collaborate and work on different projects that I assign to them. These projects will be based on the book, novel, or text that they are working on in the reading groups. I think this will also be a good way for parents and other students to look at their work and make comments. Here is my site: Ms. Schiedermayer's Reading Groups

Donna Vargas - I would like for my students to use this wiki to make comments on articles that they find related to our current topic. My IB students bring in an article every week so this would be an additional resource as well as an ideal location for them to place the links to their articles so anyone can read them. Articulos y Expertos

Joe Hilliard - I'm going to have my AP students add posts that relate to the five themes of AP World History. Each unit can have a different page for each theme. They'll be able to add a post or edit a post as long as they follow certain guidelines. The other use I'm really looking forward to is creating a website page or a resources page that students can regularly update. When the AP exam rolls around they'll definitely be checking it out. APWH - Hillgrove

More Wiki pages: Lori McCall - I set my wiki up like a webpage rather than a classroom, but I'm planning to use it with students in classes I collaborate with regularly and with my Book & Writing club. I've got three ideas started, including my plan for my ELL project, but the title of my page won't stay pretty like it is before I hit save. Anyone with suggestions? Check it out here: The Magnificent Media Maven's Window to the World

Judson Smith- Judson

This wiki is for both my students and their parents to keep up with the ongoings of my class. I will list each week's assignments and special activities we have going on. I created a page for parents to post and a page for students to post.

LaSaundra Allen-Cohen Social Bee

The SocialBee is a Wiki where students can find additional resources and information about their Social Studies project. Students will also be able to use the Wiki to display their projects and share them with their parents, peers, and community.

Sandra Bennett Science Connections

This Wiki will be used by my TAG Life Science students to post their projects which will be shared with classmates and others. The students will also have opportunities for collaboration with one another and with subject matter experts outside the classroom.

Sarah Barnett 9th Lit at Woodland

This wiki will be used as a platform for collaboration for the multiple 9th grade teachers at my school. Rather than emailing documents during the time between our biweekly meetings, we will post activities we will be using in class to the wiki so that others can adapt or adopt. The page will eventually be made private and accessibly to only the 9th grade English teachers and other invited guests so that tests can be uploaded without the risk of students having access.

David Culbreth Fishywishy

This wiki will be used by my accelerated 6th grade math class to view tutorial videos, collaborate on Webquests, communicate with other students, and get their homework assignments with online help from me.

Susan Brandon- [|Sharon BYOT Resources]

The Sharon BYOT (Bring Your Own Technology) Wiki is a place to share information, ideas, and resources to help implement a BYOT program. This was started as a resource for my elementary school teachers and students. It is a work in progress, and I look forward to adding more information as we learn and grow on our BYOT Journey. I am a big fan of Wikis!

Michael Henderson - Algebra and Geometry Resources

This Wiki will be a place where students can share information on various concepts throughout the class. Sample problems will be displayed and then commented on to help students with difficulty. This provides students with additional strategies for completing problems. Math is a subject where there are multiple ways to get to the correct answer. The teacher instructs students on concrete conventional steps to solve problems, but ultimately students can chose when to apply those steps to get the solution.

Amber Genzink 5th Grade Lesson Plans

My collaborating ELA teacher and I have been looking for a better way to share lesson plans. We will use this wiki to create, share, and edit our lesson plans in real time and without clogging up our emails! We will also post all resource documents associated with the lessons for easy access.

Carole Bevis - TheBeve9 is a Wiki where parents of kindergarteners can find resources to help their child with language arts and math. This will be a work in progress as I learn more of what a Wiki can do. I would like to put links to math games here too.

Emily Davis OttersRead

This website will be used by 4th and 5th graders involved in the Battle of the Books reading competition at Ocee Elementary. Each classroom has a page where students can contribute to make notes about the books that they have read.

**Monika Davis**
https://dcsd21cle.wikispaces.com I would use this wiki to inform and communicate with district stakeholders regarding the educational technology needs for the school district. The purpose of this tool would be to facilitate a collaborative experience that not only educates everyone on 21st Century Teaching, Learning, and Assessment but also allows participants to help give relevant and authentic input. This will hopefully provide a platform to support a continuous learning community which models and supports the basic premises of 21st Century Themes and Skills.
