Workshops and websites are often about the "how" of tools and strategies and we often get so involved worrying about the how, that we never really get to the "what for". Keep in mind as you learn about how to create and use a wiki as a website, that the most important thing has to be how a wiki (or any other technology tool) can make you a more efficient, more effective educator and it can make your classroom a more effective and engaging place for you and your students to learn.


 * Reminders for me when I plan a class:**
 * Stop integrating technology, instead redefine literacy and integrate that.
 * It’s not just literacy skills, it’s literacy habits.
 * It’s not just lifelong learning, it’s a learning lifestyle.
 * Not about just answering questions, figuring out //**how**// to answer questions is important.
