Day One

1. **Copyrights** - Creative Commons - Flickr - Google image - Youtube.. 2. **What is Wiki?**: A Wiki is a website which visitors can modify. Such as Wikipedia, an open encyclopedia. The term wiki comes from the Hawaiian word wiki wiki, meaning quick or fast, and if you can use a word-processor, you can edit a wiki. 3 **Why Wiki?** On a smaller scale, teachers and students use wiki services, such as Wikispaces, to create collaboratively authored class texts. Everything from grammar exercises to essays and from hyperlinks to video projects can be shared on a wiki, with each student pitching in his or her own contribution. However, we are here to learn to create individual Wiki first (locking your pages). When students are more comfortable with creating Wikis, they can create group Wikis or class Wikis. 3. **Learn to create Wiki**. 4. **Experiment with Wiki** - Create pages (Home page, art project page, eBook page, a page with theme of your own choice), Home Page Design, a synopsis of your eBook on eBook page.
