Tech Tip 1 – You can cite in wikispaces
Posted by admin under Tech Tips
I stumbled across this new feature on wikispaces thanks to coolcatteacher on twitter. When analyzing a page in wikispaces, one of the first things that you look for is the citations. Students must learn how to verify information that they find on the web. It is equally important that students cite where they find information when publishing on the web. Wikispaces has just made that task even easier. (wikispaces runs our private brand wiki) Students can now place tags around their footnote when publishing on wikispaces, and it will automatically place the footnote on the bottom of the page. Please include this in your rubrics when grading wiki’s. A tutorial as to how to place footnotes can be found at the wikispaces blog.
