An interesting experiment in Internet community governance is taking place at the Free Digital University, and exploring who we are as multi-dimensional beings; the dimensions being those of thought (Mind), feeling (Spirit), Physicality (body), law (governance), and the new realm of cyberspace in which we co-create with Digital Bodies.
The discussions at this wiki will determine the ultimate rules (programming parameters) for a unique virtual reality game designed to address the climate, poverty, sustainablility, education, and the entire socio-economic system mired in Industrial Age paradigms. By utilizing a Information Age system that is alignment with our planetary educational,health care, and other needs; we can be far more successful in addressing the critical issues facing humanity today. Education is the key, if you have curriculum you feel should be shared at our wiki, let me know and we'll include it in the curriculum links as appropriate. I plan on visiting the other eduicational wikis as time permits.

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?

How can I share the syllabus with my students and parents and avoid users from editing the page? Not that a student would take something off and say it was never assigned.

I created a second website to post the answers to study guide questions on a different website and I want to link those two together. In the past I would put my answers on the same website but in a different location and to me it was not organized. So can you please help

Dear WetPaint,
I commend you on your age requirement. COPPA aside, research on brain development correlates "screen time" to health impairments. Balancing the influence of the digital age on the physical age is an appropriate question for innovators in the field to entertain.

How can I undo setting the template to parent-teacher association? I thought I was simply adding a new page to link to for parents, but it reconfigured everything.

Hi Mr Bartels,
I've just created a Wetpaint Wiki for my Grade 5 class. Do you know if there is a way I can create user logons for each of my students, rather than 'inviting' them via email. The emails go to their parents. I'm afraid if I send the 'invite' to parents, most parents won't be bothered creating a Wetpaint user account for their child, and hence that child won't be able to log in. Is there a way of me being able to create a user logon for each child? Kind regards Tricia (Australia)

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.

My question regards students' access to other discussion forums on Wetpaint. We want our students to create a wiki in Wetpaint, though there is a concern that by allowing access to Wetpaint, they will also be able to access discussion forums and other content within Wetpaint that could be deemed 'inappropriate'. Is it possible to set access to education wikis only?

this works if the students have internet connection all the time and are able to use it. if your student aren't necesarily able to use the internet all the time, that might work. maybe having a bit laxer of a policy but still encouraging them to post stuff on the wiki

I am considering a wiki for our math teachers to share lessons. They would need to be able to download lessons that were in the form of PDF files, word documents or powerpoint. A maximum of 40 attachments for the entire site would be limiting. I know this question was asked previously, but wondering if it has been changed - especially for education? Or is there a suggested "work-around"

Hi All
I have created a couple of wikis for my class. One is cscalpine.wetpaint.com This is a stock standard format in Wetpaint but when my students log on in our computer lab the display is all over the place. Everything is on the left side of the page and there is no colours. Does anybody have any clues.

Do you have some good examples of WetPaint or other wiki sites that focus on music education and multimedia. I am interested in exploring methods for collaborative study in music, digital storytelling, video and documentary.
