I thoroughly enjoyed making the Resource Wiki. I can honestly say I was very lucky because all of the team members in the Elementary Resource Wiki worked hard and diligently to help create it and it looks amazing! I will now be able to have a place I can go to if I want to find online resources for certain subjects, or if I need to find a good teacher website. If I want my students to play a game that will help them learn, I can go to the Games page on the wiki to find some great websites. I really like WebQuests and so having many to choose from and look at will be helpful in my classroom.
I think it's interesting to see what the girls in my Resource Wiki thought about websites without having to meet up with them. Even though I have only met a few of them, I feel like I know everyone just through the wiki. I hope the sources I posted can help the other students in TPTE with their learning. I enjoyed this group project because everyone worked hard and wanted to help each other.
I can see myself using a Resource Wiki in my classroom one day, especially for a group research project. Students can post websites and sources on the wiki for others to look at outside of school without having to take time from the class period to do the research. Students won't have to meet as a group as often because they can discuss through the wiki. I can keep track of their progress by looking at their wiki, as well as be able to tell who has done a lot of work and who needs to bring more to the table.
I am glad we got to learn about Resource Wikis because I know I will use them in my classroom one day.
