I heard mention of a school in Manitoba that uses a wiki as their main school site. Can you post the URL for this wiki?
I’ll find out what that site is from Karen or Vicki and let you know! (I’ll link it here as well as email it to you.)
I helped set up our new school website by using a wiki as a practice site before we published with CivicPlus (sigh). I wish I could have suggested a wiki instead of paying for a very technical, unwieldy service.
As a classroom teacher, I need it to be easy, and I need it to be instant, or it’s not going to get done.
Joel: The school is St. Francois Xavier Community School and their wiki is
http://sfxschool.pbwiki.com/. The pricipal is Joe Evans and the wiki is featured
as a case study on the pbwiki website at http://pbwiki.com/content/casestudy-stfrancois.
Thanks for the follow up! Keep up the great work!
