This BEGINNER SHOW is an exciting new Classroom 2.0 webinar series for beginners that will kick off on Wednesday, May 13 at 8:00pm Eastern (that’s USA)!  The new three-part series “Go Wild with Wikis” will be hosted on Elluminate and facilitated by Sue Waters, Edublogs Community Facilitator. In the first session Sue will take you on a guided tour of what are wikis, why educators use wikis, and how to use wikis for their own professional learning and/or with their students.

In future sessions you will gradually learn step-by-step details about the different features of a wikispaces wiki including how to set it up, manage it and add content. While the beginner series focus is helping educators new to web technologies learn more about how they can use these tools with their students it will also provide ‘takeaways’ for the more experienced users. Attend the beginner show and see future events.
