“It's so easy to create a site to help guide
students along with projects. I have found that
it's a good way to make handouts available to students - I just point
them at the web address. I post links to my PBwiki
sites on Rockford's site so that parents can access
project guidelines as well.”
Justin Wylie Rockford High School

Wiki Security
3 Choices! 1) Who can see the wiki2) Who can edit?3) Full control: only have
people on it that you invite. (This may not be
optimal for a class website as you may want parents to be able to view the content)
![Page 42: Wikis In Physical Education](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052618/54b361304a79598b6c8b4769/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Notifications & RSS
From experience, I tend to unclick that so my students do not receive multiple emails when they sign up for the wiki.
You can change notifications when you go to your personal account.

RSS Feeds
RSS is a method for subscribing to changes made on your wiki so you can see what has changed more easily. Most web browsers include RSS readers, and generally show a feed icon somewhere near the address bar (the icon is orange in most browsers, but it's blue in Safari.)
When you click this icon, you'll see a list of available feeds. Here's what that looks like in the Firefox browser.
![Page 45: Wikis In Physical Education](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052618/54b361304a79598b6c8b4769/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
RSS Feeds (2)
Your PBwiki has a few feeds you can subscribe to: The Recent Changes feed includes all
recent changes on your wiki, including page edits, comments, file uploads -- you name it.
Each wiki page has its own feed that only includes edits and comments on that particular page
Each folder has its own feed that includes edits and comments made to any page in that folder

Add a template
If you want your students to use the same format.
E.g. lesson plans, creating a game, writing a paragraph, doing a project
You can create a page and by adding the tag “template”, you create a template that you can copy.
Let’s have a look at an example: Jogging project:

Editing a page
Click Edit Use the “WYSIWYG” editor – as easy as
using word. Type away! Insert pictures:
Insert links/images and files Upload files (create picture folder/ file
folder) Click on picture/file to insert where cursor is

Linking
Creating links between page makes a wiki more interactive
How to add a link? Link to other wiki page Link to new wiki page Link to folder Link to URL Link to Email
Always remember to put the cursor where you want the link to be.
