Well I created my own wiki but tried to add my own video that the kids in my class made but the file was too big. I don't really want to put the video up on Utube because of privacy with the kids in my class. I am not sure how that work so if someone happens to read this let me know your thoughts on this. So I added a picture and didn't post a video or website since I didnt feel it was was necessary just yet until I figure out the privacy clearing with kids at my school. I guess that is my only question regarding this. I can see how blogs could be useful with some topics and you could probably add the link to the wiki page for students to fund it accessible and could use your wiki for parents too. Therefore, you have one site with various options for students and parents. A one stop shop!
Here is my wiki:

You have a total of 2 GB for your wiki and a maximum of 10 MB per file. I'm not sure about the size of your video but I'm thinking you reached the 10 MB upload limit.
ReplyDeleteAs far as privacy goes, if I was creating a wiki for a classroom, I would send home a letter with options for parents to make some choices regarding their child. Most are fine with photos but use of last names is not recommended. Some will make a decision based on the level of access you provide. At the district level, very few parents sign the form requesting that their child not be on the district website.
