I am a teacher of English in Portugal and I started a wiki some time ago, and I've been uploading attachments so that my students can go there and download them to practise some contents. The problem is that I uploaded up to 40 attachments by levels of difficulty and now the page/site doesn't allow me to upload anymore. I didn't know there was a maximum permitted. It is rather annoying because I have many levels of language teaching and I can't upload any worksheets from now on.
Thanks you in advance.

I created a WIKI using this wet paint site. I wrote down the URL as www,ECED235.wetpaint.com Now I can't find it again and it does not come up when I use that URL.
Where is it? How dumb am I? JSH

Hi Jeff,
I am a graduate student in Brazil and my academic research is taking place in a "telecentro" in a public library in Brazil. There I teach groups of users to create their own wetpaint wiki and practice collaboration on the net. http://oficinaswiki.wetpaint.com I've been working on this project since May 2008 and things had been going on quite nicely until last week. What happened is that the site was off during the workshop time and it was very frustating. As a teacher I had a plan B, but I am afraid the same happens next week and I don't have a plan C. I know these are technical problems and sometimes it is not easy to predict them. On the other hand, checking the time the workshop takes place here in Brazil - Saturdays from 10 AM to 1 PM, I noticed it would be 6AM to 9AM (Seattle time - 4 hours less than here, São Paulo, Brazil). All these things considered, I'd like to ask you to take people from other places into consideration next time you decide to do something on the site and have it off line. Vera

I 'd like to start a wiki for my class. I don't want the students or anybody else to edit unless I ask for it.
Which type should I select? If it isn't public, are the others free for public school educators? If they are free, for how long? How do I contact you directly for questions while building the site?

I am looking for detailed WetPaint tutorials. I find the videos on the website unsatisfactory particularly for 2nd language learners. I was also upset that the phone operator would not let me talk to a WetPaint technicians on this problem. I had some ideas to solve this problem and was told to email. The culture at WetPaint needs to change immediately. Let's get this straight. Where can I reach you?

Mr. Bartels:
I think that concerns for student safety are going to be a big issue for truly widespread adoption. It sounds like WetPaint gives you some controls, but is it really managable as an environment where students are enabled to make contributions? While from an individual teacher's perspective it sounds like it might be manageable (each teacher manages his/her realm) district office admin types would prefer to throw a safety net out there to cover all. It is hard to fault them that. If safety is dependent on individual teachers and you have thousands of teachers, slip-ups are going to happen. Intranet/Extranet hosting scenarios are going to be attractive on that basis ... at the loss, of course, of significant educational value/opportunity. I work in IT at the district office. I am beside myself with excitement re Web 2.0 opportunities for education and I want to spread that to the Ed. Svcs. division. But these are rational concerns that will be raised and I'd like to know how others are addressing them. Some of WetPaint's marketing casts a shadow of negativity on IT. I know that the buerecratic nature of public education admin is brutal and, worse, it saps public ed of vital resources especially excitement. But IT is really not the enemy. DO admin types are not the ememy. Each element of buerecratic overhead is a response to public demands/dynamics. I can do more about it as an individual than I can as a public employee. In other words the enemy is in the masses not at the DO and not in IT. Widespread, ubiquitous adoption is going to require tackling the issues that make IT and the DO less responsive than desireable to these opportunities.
