Thing 17: Learning 2.0 Sandbox Wiki

"Sandbox" is the term that wikis often use to describe the area of the website that should be used for pure play.

For this discovery and exploration exercise, we’ve set up a whole Nhulunbuy Learning 2.0 Wiki* that’s for nothing but play! For this “explore-and-play-with-wikis” exercise, you are asked to add an entry or two.

The theme of this wiki is simply “Favorites” : Favorite books, favorite holiday destinations, favorite restaurants, favorite anything …all you need to do is play and add your thoughts. To mark your adventure on this site, you should add your blog to the Favorite Blogs page.

Discovery Resources:

• PB Support Centre - Find out how this collaborative tool can be used
• PB Wiki Tips

Discovery Exercise:

1. Access the Nhulunbuy Learning 2.0 Wiki and create a login account for yourself.
2. Add your blog to the Favorite Blogs page. That's how we'll know that you've been there.
3. Add a favorite or two to a few other pages (Favorite Books, Favorite Holiday Destinations, etc).
4. And, if you feel up to the challenge, you might even want to create a separate page for book review or short travel essay and link up to that.
5. Create a post in your blog about the experience.

* NOTE: The Nhulunbuy Learning 2.0 Wiki was created using the free version of PBWorks, a tool that lets you create webpages that anyone can edit.
