404 Update

I brainstormed with Ms. Catania who had some excellent suggestions, which I took. To begin with, I used her idea of an organizer for Post Its, and then to categorize the Post Its in another organizer. So the students are putting ideas into categories. Also, I created a PortaPortal for the students. It has links to "teacher approved" websites. In some cases, the links are bascially to images. The students have used some document analysis techniques to write off of the images. Ms. Catania also mentioned that the students are familiar with Pages; this program is new tome, but very intuitive. I am thinking of having students create Pages and import them in to wiki...any thoughts?
