The cerebrum -- which is just Latin for "brain" -- is the newest (evolutionarily) and largest part of the brain as a whole. It is here that things like perception, imagination, thought, judgment, and decision occur. I hope you are thoughtful as you leave your comments on this blog.

Wikis
What do think about "Wikis"? How do you plan to create your wikispace? Do you have any questions?
Wikis are a good way to comunicate with many people while keeping the group up to date and fully informed on their tasks. I plan on posting teacher/student/parent websites on my wiki and will start searching soon.
I am loving wikis! The presentation last week helped me explanied wikis to my friends most of which are teachers. They are now exited and would like to start a wiki page of their own. I have already created my wikispace, I am looking forward to posting teacher, student work om my wiki. Parents would not be left out they will also have the opportunity to view some of their child's work.
I have never learned about wikis prior to this class, but I do enjoy creating the wiki I am working on. I am not very good with technology (the main reason I wanted to take this course was to learn to use it), so it takes me a little longer than probably most of the class to add things to my wiki. However, I am glad that I am working on one so that when I have a classroom of my own I can incorporate a wiki in my class. I think it is important for children to become familiar with this technology, as they will need to be "technology literate" when they grow-up.
I am so excited to know how to create a wiki! I am also amazed that it is really not that complicated. Wikis are a great communication tool, easy to navigate, and offer a dynamic way to present ideas and material!
It has worked really well for this class (Technology and Instruction)!
