USING WIKISPACES WITH YOUR SILVER BIRCH PROGRAM
LET’S HAVE SOME FUN!
Starting off with the “home” page. This is what you will see each time you login.
It’s best to have a separate page to discuss favourite books, otherwise the home page discussion “thread” will become too crowded.
Click on each book cover to take you to that book’s discussion page.
Book page for students to discuss their thoughts.
Creating a “wiki” page.
Starting your wikipages by adding text and pictures.
Adding a picture from pictures saved in your documents. Once you “import” a
picture to your wiki, it will save the image automatically for you to use again.
Tools to edit your picture if you want.
ADDING A SURVEY TO YOUR WIKISPACE
