Marian Thacher	marianpresentations.pbwiki.com	I use my wiki for collecting links that I want to show in presentations and workshops.   A great example of using wikis for adult education is the schools that are using them for their WASC accreditation visits. Committees are formed to write various chapters of the self-study, and they can each work on the document without a committee meeting!   Another non-classroom example is the wiki that Susan Gaer has created for planning the next CATESOL conference.	marian2u@yahoo.com
Vincent Nunez	http://eslwiki.pbwiki.com/	A lot of factors determine how I use this wiki. How big is the room? Are the chairs too close together for students to get to the Smartboard easily?  Is the projector screen where all students can see it, or is it off to one side? How bright is the glare from ceiling lights that shine on the projector screen? How small is the text on the page? Do I have good enough visuals in the textbook already? Are enough students interested in practicing with the keyboard and mouse?... I'm tending to use the wiki far less in my beginning low classroom. When I teach in more spacious, better arranged, intermediate classrooms, however, watch out! ^-^ It's a welcome addition for students who know that they can benefit from guided practice with web tools of every type.	nunez_vincent@sac.edu
