Pupils from Greece Romania and Italy was colaborating using pbwiki to talk about emigration. I create a wikipage where i asked them to tell us what is their opinion about that tool. All of them liked it very much even and if was the first time that they used it. You can find their answers in : http://whyemigrating.pbwiki.com/our+feelings and specially in the question : http://whyemigrating.pbwiki.com/our+feelings#Wasthiswikiuseful . They used it to talk about the project but also they created their personal pages where they add things that they like. It is really the only tool that you can use if you want to make a nice cooperation with pupils from other countries. I used PBwiki in an e twinning project.

Wikis have provided a platform for my online students to share their research and opinions without meeting face-to-face. I've found the quality of assignments submitted has improved because students have opportunies to view different perspectives and quality of work of classmates. I have given two presentation to the community college where I am an adjunct instructor and I'm constantly working on the other members of our department to use wikis. It's just the greatest collaboration tool I've ever used. PBwiki has been the most user-friendly of the wikis that I have used. Do you still have any gold accounts left? I received my t-shirt and used the presentor handouts but never received my gold accounts. I'd like to see if upgraded features would make it an even better tool!

We are a grant funded initiative developing online, for credit classes for the students of Tennessee (and beyond). I besides my duties in teacher oversight, I have also been tasked with researching and applying web 2.0 technology into our courses under development. I would love to receive a presenters pack so that I could "spread" the word about you. I am a new Lead Teacher for e4TN (e for Tennessee).

This really has been the best thing to happen to my curriculum in a very long time. The staff at my site is a bit technophobic. I know if I could show them how great this is, more of them would take the leap. I'm planning to offer an afterschool or staff meeting presentation as soon as I can get put on the schedule. Can I request a presenter pack? Thanks for everything you do (can't wait for 2.0!) I LOVE PBWIKI - my students are addicted, and so am I.
