Urgent call for contributing to the Wired Wiki Article

Home » Uncategorized » Urgent call for contributing to the Wired Wiki Article

I know we’re all busy with the holiday weekend, but if you’re online and if your using wikis, please go over to the Wired News story that they are creating about Wired Wikis. Ask others on your blog to do so as well! (For people who need the printed url it is https://www.socialtext.net/wired/index.cgi?wired_wiki#edit_the_story.)

It is an experiment in collaborative journalism and I believe this is the future!

If you register, you’ll be listed as a contributor. Remember your ethics, don’t use this as self promotion but fact.

In fact, this is why I’m asking you. At the request of the reporter, I have contributed a couple of paragraphs about education. I think it needs a lot more fleshing out and a lot more than me. I’d love to see several great examples of wiki education added and less of me!

This is about promoting classroom engagement and helping students learn! Join in the cause and go over to post right now! At least post comments if you are nervous about editing the main article! (I was!)

The article will be published soon so join in the future of journalism — go over there and collaborate.

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki
