It is a wiki titled Teaching Hacks. I think I must have visited it before because I discovered it in my <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">own<\/span> set of del.icioi.us bookmarks <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">&#8212; nice to see that I find such good resources \ud83d\ude00<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In any case, it has become a most impressive resource. The page with information about wikis in education is well organized and stuffed full of useful information.  Here is a partial list of it&#8217;s contents.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>What is a Wiki?<\/li>\n<li>Quick Ideas Around Classroom Uses of Wikis.<\/li>\n<li>Pedagogy<\/li>\n<li>Software (hosted wikis, server-side wikis, desktop wikis)<\/li>\n<li>Practical Advice for Classroom Use (including model collaboration, assigning roles, assigning tasks, looking at contributions, recording accomplishments, using the style guide)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The actual list is much longer than this, so check it out yourself.  That last item I listed really has my attention.  As I read through it, I got a bunch of practical ideas for how to make wikis work in my curriculum. These aren&#8217;t project ideas; they are process ideas.  That information always feels like a set of power tools when I am lucky enough to find it.  It jump starts me into a successful project.<\/p>\n<p>And here is a list of the entire wiki&#8217;s main contents. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">(Note: I pasted it here.
