Wiki+Workshop

=**Wiki workshop**= = = The workshop is very much hands-on - participants will create a wikispace and learn how to add text, photos, movies, audio files and a range of widgets (eg "//live"// clocks, maps) as well as manage the space.
 * A Wikispaces (or pbwiki) workshop can be arranged for teachers, parents, students or ancillary staff either together or in separate groups. From experience, it is often better for the teacher/s to spend a day setting up a school or class wikispace and learning how to manage it **before** introducing the students.
 * Most people gain enough in a one day workshop to get started using Wikispaces. A school, class or community wikispace can be easily set up in a day but this depends somewhat on the expertise of the group and the requirments of the wikispace. Workshops can be planned for 2 or even 3 days or a follow-up workshop arranged for a later date.
 * As Wikispaces are entirely web-based it is irrelevant what platform (ie Windows or Macintosh) or what web browser (ie Explorer, Firefox, Safari) is used. All that is required is a good broadband connection, computers, ideas and enthusiasm.
