Wiki+Authenic+Assessment+Assignment

=Wiki Authentic Assessment Assignment=

Now that you have learned the basics of constructing a wiki, it is time for the fun work! You will create your own classroom wiki for your students. You will partner into groups of three (3), according to subject content from each grade level. For example Grades 6-7-8 Science, Grades 6-7-8 Social Science, Grades 6-7-8 Math, Grades 6-7-8 Literature, 6-7-8 Foreign Language. As this wiki is a work in progress, we may begin its creation in this venue, and continue the collaborative processes at anytime. Remember wikis can be accessed from anywhere, and do not need to have face-to-face meetings to create a great piece of work!

If you have any questions, please refer to the resources materials presented in this workshop. You may include as many resources as you desire. Student participation is optional, but highly suggested as it draws the students into the collaboration process.

Be certain to utilize the "manage wiki" page, such issues such as content, people, settings, and tools are contained within this page. Discussion pages can be used for collaboration, while each grade level can create a page of their own.

You will evaluate the wikis of your colleagues using the "Authentic Assessment Rubric" provided in the "Wiki Collaboration Rubric" section. In addition, you will also evaluate this workshop using the " Multimedia Professional Development Rubric" also provided in the "Wiki Collaboration Rubric" section. Please complete the Multimedia Professional Development Rubric": It will be an honor to gauge your reflections on the effectiveness of this workshop, and your suggestions for its improvement.

You will be given one hour for creating wiki basics as a group. **This will be the only face-to-face interaction.** Have fun with this assignment!
