WIKI ME SOMETHING DELICIOUS PROJECT DUE SEPT. 10
Wiki Me Something Delicious
Project Description: We are going to make a Wiki using Wikispaces.com. We are also going to cite where we got our information by using the Social Bookmarking site called Delicious.com. Topic is of your choice, but the purpose of this project is to learn how to cite, research, and display information on the internet.
What is a Wiki? A Wiki is a website that allows the easy creation and editing of any number of interlinked web pages via a web browser using a simplified markup language or a WYSIWYG text editor. In other words, it is a easy to make web page for users of the internet. It also allows more than one internet user to edit the page at once, making a Wiki a collaborative tool for creating web based media.
Why would we use a Wiki? Well for starters, a lot of us are familiar with Wikipedia. Most of us are familiar with this site because a lot of us go there for answers about random questions and etc. Wikipedia, however, is a site not developed by professional web designers, but more accurately, a site designed by internet users who are really interested in a particular topic and are able to share a little bit of their knowledge by adding to the Wiki.
How can we be sure the information on a Wiki is correct? The simple answer is we cannot, but for the most part the information is because many people edit Wiki pages at a time and users constantly check recently added material’s accuracy, fixing misinformation.

Back to School Night
Hello Parents,
It was a pleasure meeting all of you last night. If you are reading this then you are at my blog for the mac lab that I run here at Santa Rosa Academy. The purpose of this blog is to keep you and your student up to date with projects worked on in class as well as homework assignments. Lately, we have been starting class off with a warm up that usually includes using technology in a creative and innovative way. The reasoning behind this is to be in compliance with iste's National Education Technology Standards or (NETS), which I will have a link to in the right side bar of this page labeled (NETS). Also, a couple concerns were answered that I will readdress right now. For starters, if you are still having trouble emailing and are unable to print at home from your student's computer, then I suggested purchasing a flash drive which allows students to save files, and then, transfer to another computer. This purchase will be a worthwhile expense, but by no means is required for this particular class. With concerns for printing, this will be handled on an individual basis. First you need to record what kind of printer you have and have your student talk to Mr. Sanchez who will assist in the installation of the necessary printer driver for your MacBook. I wish you a good day.
