My Wikis
I have created 2 wikis as part of university assignments which promote the use of collaborative writing. Each wiki is related to a different topic or unit of work and provides scaffolding, examples of writing and detailed outlines of the task. Feel free to use or adapt the activities, or request to join the wiki in order to be able to add posts if you wish to use it with your class!
- Writing Task for HSC, Module C which encourages students to understand History and Memory through revieing and constructing texts: http://moduleccreativewriting.wikispaces.com
- Genre Mish-Mash collaborative writing project which requires students to inform themselves about generic conventions and work with others to create a text in that style. It is a task which is designed to accompany the study of the novel Joel and Cat Set the Story Straight, but can be adapted to suit your own purposes. http://yr9genremish-mash.wikispaces.com/
