Tutorial on how to create your own wikis

I have created a tutorial on how to create your own wikis prior to undertaking a collaborative project, or as my 2nd assignment a web experiment. This PowerPoint presentation is a good demonstration to students to give them the ability to understand how to add discussion/results and editing in creating their own wikis or participating in a collaborative project. The link to PowerPoint Tutorial is below.

Introduction

Galileo once said, "You cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him find it within himself."

As an educator, I believe the mission of education is to provide all students with an educational enviornment. Technology is a great way to teach students and to reinforce what they have already learnt. I believe that technology can be useful to both educators and students, by providing millions of resources at our fingertips.

I have decided to a create a blog, because I believe blogs are designed to cater for everyone and in addition serve people in different ways. It has a structure which is flexible, you are able to communicate, share images, add a personal profile and promote ideas. I think it is a good management tool to be able to manage my thoughts.

What do you think of blogs? Would you use it as a management tool? Would you use it to communicate? Please share your thoughts.
