How to Use This Wiki
I believe you all have some experience working with wikis, but if not, or if it's been a while, here are a few things to keep in mind.

The wiki pages are all organized in the left-hand margin of this site. Click on any page to view its contents. The Learning Profile page offers information and suggestions for differentiated learning. The Media pages include lists of content that I have collected online or that is available in the media center. Feel free to add to these lists, or to comment on the materials. The Lesson Plan/UPT page offers detailed information on the planning of this unit. Your input is necessary here to make this project a true collaboration. Another page to review is the calendar feature. Please make sure this timeline will work with all of your schedules. The last page listed is Student Comments/Links. This page will link you to each of your classroom wiki pages. Instructions are provided for you to help your students write comments about other western expansion wikis. Please review and comment on this area of the wiki.

To edit the contents of any page, simply click on the "EDIT" button and begin typing. Once you're finished, you can click on "Preview" to see how your text will look, then don't forget to click on "Save!"

The great thing about wikis is that we can always go back and view an earlier version, so don't worry about making a mistake. Click on the HISTORY tab to see exactly what changes were made and by what individual.
