Response System Set-up
Ideally this workshop would be largely hands-on
but due to the logistics of the day, computers are
not available for every staff member to use to
participate.
So.....we will model a way to have you (your

topics anonymously using the free web2 tool
Corkboard.Me and your cell phone or laptop.

else you can think of
• It can contain multiple pages and links

Technology resource for
Lincoln Public Schools faculty:

12. What teachers can do with a wiki
• Student Assignments
o Teachers post homework, group work, and classroom goals,
and update them throughout the year in real time.
• Curriculum Planning
o Classroom schedules and lesson plans can be tweaked from
any computer or mobile device — and reused and re-purposed
from year to year.
• Professional Development
o Education professionals come together to plan events and
share best practices in a flexible, accessible, easy-to-update
online resource.

13. What students can do with a wiki
• Student Portfolios
o Each student creates and maintains a unique online space to
showcase his/her best work, and teachers assess performance
as it progresses
• Project-Based Learning
o Student groups collaborate on projects that address real-world
questions, and share their findings with a real-world audience.
• Distance Learning
o Students and teachers share a flexible educational space that’s
accessible anytime from anywhere in the world.

involve researching the issues, taking positions on
them, developing an action plan, and creating a
database of links to valuable information regarding the
topic.

Google Apps
• Free, easy-to-use online (web-based) apps that enable
you and your students to create, store and share instantly
and securely, and collaborate online in real time

documents, spreadsheets and presentations

with the teacher - teacher can comment on it directly
and student sees feedback instantaneously
o Peer Editing: students create a document and
share with their peers - peers provide feedback
o Collaboration: students create a document and
work on it together each adding their own ideas

23. Other Google Apps
• Spreadsheets
• Presentations
• Sites - teachers can use this tool to create
their own web page
• Forms
o Contribute to this form!
