Kevin http://physiwiki.wetpaint.com/ Our main application: The class is divided into 5 groups of 5-7 people per group. After each lecture, one group has to write notes about the physiology lecture and another group writes review questions.

Although my wiki is in portuguese, i think you can see how i organized my classes and my proposal to students projects. I have the summary's for each day class and the project, then the students develop their pages and links. This a continued work during the school year....

Caledonia Mill
I use wikis to broadcast Caledonia's vast history and important information on the web. I advertise for fund-raisers in the town and help out a lot of businesses by doing so. Wetpaint is my first choice in wiki's for education!
TomH www.classdocoproject.wetpaint.com
www.classdocoproject.21publish.com
My class is making a documentary film. They use the wiki as a place to share resources, make decisions and discuss. They also have a blog where each of them can reflect on the learning and the process that they are going through.
Teacherbob guildfordlives.wetpaint.com With an international group of ESL learners we planned the site in class. Students made questionnaires and researched local information that they could pass on to the next group of students. Different students had responsibility for different areas but could add to each other's.
Kathy http://primarymath.wetpaint.com
http://plantproject.wetpaint.com
Primary classes from around the world are sharing their learning about patterns and plants through pictures.
Yolanda aquasquad.wetpaint.com Our class have presented their research project on water conservation on this site.
UKrope http://languagegroupspanish.wetpaint.com/ development of the idea, how we can train Spanish and English in a group of seniors
Mrs. Williams williams12r.wetpaint.com

exeterlatinclub.wetpaint.com
All 3 of my sites are intended to increase students' knowledge/comfort with technology. one site is for students to discuss Lord of the Flies, post essay as work in progress + receive feedback. 2nd for Latin Club, to increase member contact beyond one meeting a week. 3rd for senior research paper, to increase feedback + interaction + improve student thinking, writing, research.
Wayne B @ Werribee Community Centre www.wayneatwerrcc.wetpaint.com I teach computers, career planning and general education for adults. I use my wiki to provide notes for my students and learning activities. My students include youth at risk, esl, mature aged learners.
Terri -willinghamster@gmail.com Tampa Bay Mentor Match This is my first forray into wikis. I run a nonprofit education resource organization -- Learning is for Everyone - and I've long been interested in mentoring as way to build true community-based learning. Most mentoring programs I've found are for disadvantaged or troubled youth. I believe mentoring can benefit all youth (and those who mentor them!), and that many in our community would be happy to mentor if they had the opportunity. So I put Tampa Bay Mentor Match together to test my theory. :-) I'd appreciate others' thoughts and ideas.
Paula Ordunez handsonhomeschool.wetpaint.com This site is for Home-schoolers all across the Denver Metro area. It allows them to be able to Share ideas, clubs, classes field trips opportunities, thoughts stories and work that has been done. We have had so many comments on this site! Thank you!

How we use wikis in class - Wikis in Education
Students worked in five groups of four students in our sixth grade humanities class to create unique utopias "Geotopias" somewhere on earth.
I posted pictures of their 'Geotopias'.
Scroll all the way to the bottom of the wiki to view the persuasive writing brochures and newsletters
exclaiming and persuading their classmates all the reasons why their Geotopia is the perfect place to live and/or visit!
pleft Going flexible This is a simple text-based game I've developed in Mediawiki. It's designed as a problem-based learning resource for teachers learning about designing online courses.
Matt <sorry, private wiki> I've just set up a private wiki that fellow Specialist Classroom Teachers across several schools can use to discuss issues. Wiki needs to be private because of confidentiality. So wetpaint was ideal.
Ms. Birdsey Littlewood's Nature Guide This is on-line nature guide is maintained by 5th grade students and highlights the plants and animals found at our school's environmental center.
Elke writing homework in a wiki
(in Dutch)
My class looks up their homework assignments on the wiki, write their story,
and edit and comment on someone else's story. Then they read the comments on their own story and edit it.
How we use wikis in class - Wikis in Education
Our wiki is an additional tool for F2F classroom BCOM3113 at Oklahoma State University. We use it to share ideas for the service-learning project, post the syllabus and other handouts, and to communicate with each other outside of class.
