Course Summary

Welcome to Instructional Design's wiki. If you aren't sure what a wiki is, here's where to try one out. It is a place for collaboration and collective learning. On this wiki, anything goes: it is for discussion, experimentation, playing around. Make yourself at home. Lend your knowledge and expertise, and ask questions, too. Everyone who comes to the wiki will contribute toward the development of new ideas about teaching and learning and will find out the potential for using wikis in their own classrooms too.

Syllabus

We chose the "Classroom" template for this first page. Here is where you would post your syllabus if you were using the wiki for a class site. (Of course, here at Highline, we have Blackboard,which is an excellent course management system. See "Outside Resources" below for a link.)
