It was a great project and I know the students enjoyed it. Hopefully this will inspire others to jump in and try it out! BTW...next time we'll proof-read :) Candice,

And don't worry about the teacher's comment. Often those kind of comments come from fear or lack of confidence in change. It sounds like a wonderful way to get the kids engaged and working.

Looking at what you already do on a daily/monthly/yearly basis and inviting change into it is a risky proposition. When we examine our practice critically through the lens of collaborative technologies, and do so with sound pedagogy behind it, our students respond. It sounds like yours did. Candice,

We used a wiki with this group of kids last year for their T1 project. I'm curious to know if any of them had anything to say (good or bad) about their work last year in science. I am guessing that with another year of maturation they were able to enjoy the process a whole lot more. Did they remember any of the wiki syntax? :) Hey Candice (and Pat)!
