Welcome+to+the+class+Wiki!

=Welcome to Mrs. Pantell's block 1 class!=

We will be using a Wiki throughout the semester to work on specific assignments. This will enable you to continue to work collaboratively in your assigned groups, even while you are at home. Some of you may be familiar with Wiki's and some of you will be working with them for the first time. Wiki's are a great collaboration tool that is used to improve and enhance working relationships in many different companies and communities. For example, Wikipedia is the largest Wiki in use today, with an estimated 100 million hours invested in page creation and editing. This is accomplished by people all around the world collaborating on many various topics of interest allowing them to share their expertise. Wiki's automatically track revisions which allow you to roll back changes if needed.
