Thing #15

I was first introduced to a wiki by Dr. Luck. I was not a fan at first and I will still admit that I am still getting use to them. I have found them to be helpful in many situations and the more that I work with them the more I am able to do with them. I think like many things that we are introduced to we have to become comforatble with them before we are likely to use them in our lives. For some reason I have not been as comfortable with wikis as I have with other aspects that I have been introduced.
I can see where the wiki could be used in a teachers professional life, right now I do not see the need for a wiki in my personal life. I am not sure that as a first grade teacher a wiki is something that I will be using in my classroom either.

I was able to look at some wikis that are being used by teachers as well as others. I must admit that one that caught my eye was created by the Princeton Public Library and was a book lovers wiki. I think that it would be great to be in a book club and this is what it reminded me of. I think that one of the things that I will do when I finish graduate school is took clus read more. I have not had the time to enjoy reading and I can see after looking at the book lovers wiki how a wiki coould be a great alternative to a book club.
