**Video: What is a wiki? **
media type="custom" key="3741369"

Uses of wikis:

 * teacher use - to give students info/links/files ex. https://mclead.wikispaces.com/
 * teacher use - to share ideas, lessons with other teachers - ex.http://cffmath.wikispaces.com/>
 * class use - for discussions, for student work (writing pages or uploading files) **make these private**


 * Students- if they are writing to a wiki, have them write onto your wiki. In that case, make it private and enlist your helpful CFF Coach for help with getting student accounts set up. I would not suggest that they create their own account or their own space for use in your class.
 * Be mindful of copyright- especially if site is public. Educate students about citing sources - everything on the Internet is considered copyrighted unless it specifies that it has different licensing. It is always good to ask for permission to use other's work to be sure that you are not in violation. Students need to be mindful of this.

Basic editing

 * linking - to another wiki page - to an external site
 * adding files/images
 * adding media (video/calendars/etc.)
