Step 4. Working with our Wiki



Students will have to click here to accede to the wiki: http://visitingusa.pbworks.com/. Taking the wiki as basis, students will be expected to share information about the most relevant and interesting aspects for them, which will have to be related to our topic 'Visiting USA'. Therefore, through the wiki, they will solve cooperatively all their doubts with the teacher's help, they will edit their mates' contributions, and they will put on common their interests and curiosities since all students will have access to the wiki.

Firstly, they will have to click in Log in in order to have permission to work with the wiki. Subsequently, students will have to collaborate and include their personal contributions on various entries of the wiki, just clicking in Edit in the session they wanted to edit, keeping in mind the different sections of the Webquests in order to make the information of their wiki more complete. The wiki will be the main virtual support where students will be expected to create their personal travel guide about USA which must contain photos, comments, videos or whatever they consider interesting. This travel guide will have to be obligatorily composed of the following sessions: gastronomy, sports, music, lifestyle, touristic places, festivities, curiosities, popular games and press.

-Note: students will have to add their own photos, videos, complementary information and curiosities to this wiki. They will have just to click on the specific session of the index of the wiki where they want to comment (sports, doubts-questions, music, etc), and then, they will have to click on edit in order to add their contributions.

*Goal of this activity: to foster students' empathy and a cooperative learning since all students will have to collaborate in order to complete the information of their wiki about USA.
