Now that you are a little more familiar with Wikispaces, it is time to practice your new skills. I have created a wiki for you to use. You can sign onto a new Wikispaces account and access this wiki. You can then edit the main page of the wiki, leaving a comment with your thoughts about the program and practicing how to use the Editor toolbar.

1. Log onto your account on www.wikispaces.com

2. On your homepage, there will be a section titled “Favorite Wikis.” You want to add a wiki to the list. Type //wikipractice1// into the box that says “Add a wiki to this list.” Once you have found the correct wiki, hit enter. 3. The wiki has now been added to your Favorite Wikis list. Click on the link. 4. Once you are on the wiki page, it is time to practice editing. Click the Edit button in the top right hand corner.

5. You can now edit the page. Type two to three sentences telling us your thoughts on Wikispaces. You could share what you think of the program, how you think it could be used in your classroom, concerns you have with it, etc. Use this space to try out the various editing tools in the Editor toolbar.
