Using a Wiki Policies

Although many of you text and facebook, already using forms of elecronic "talk", I want to establish some rules for using a wiki from the start.

This tool is an extension beyond the walls of our classroom. Therefore, I expect all classroom rules and expectations from the classroom to also be followed on the wiki site.


 * First, be respectful. Try not to do anything to make anyone feel frightened, angry, upset, or embarrassed. It's ok to ask thoughtful questions, even on sensitive subjects, but be polite and tactful.


 * Second, keep it clean! Avoid swearwords and other innappropriate topics for a classroom setting. (Remember, this wiki is an extension of our classroom.)


 * Third, if in doubt-leave it out. If you're not sure you should write what you're thinking on a certain subject, leave it out.


 * Last, be aware that I am able to identify you through your log in information. (Think carefully about what you write if you are unsure if it's appropriate.)
