[LM_NET] Target: Wiki and Blog Rules

[Brenda Lemon <blemon@473MAIL.NET>]

We are trying to put together a handout to give teachers that has some basics rules 
over creating and using a wiki or a classroom blog.  I was thinking about things 
such as Do... demonstrate how easy it is to edit or post.  Do.....be aware of cases 
of cyber-bullying and how it can be used with a wiki and/or blog (ie adding 
inappropriate comments).  Do....use it as a collaboration tool.   Do....take a look 
at the edit history of a wiki to see changes.  Do...make sure all comments come to 
you first to approve BEFORE they are posted on the site.

Basically, we are going to have teachers at our school start using wiki's and blogs 
in their classrooms with their students.  However, we want to also insure internet 
safety and comply with all of the safety issues.  If you have a handout that you 
have used, can you please share.  Or if you have any other comments that you think 
is important for a teacher to know before they create a wiki or a blog, pass those 
on as well.   We plan on using classblogmeister.com and wikispaces.  Thanks!
