Wow.
After a good start to the school year and with students getting used to using the computers in class I have tried to spend the past few days getting an idea of how to use a wiki for my class.
I am not even sure where this is going but I would like for my classes to write an on-line book for themselves.
I guess the trouble right now is figuring out what to do with a blank slate. I am trying pbwiki and I am not sure if I need to invite all of the students so that they can add to it. I am not sure if I need to create a few pages or if we can get by with just one page for now. Does anyone have any ideas?
I think that this could be a very powerful tool but I feel lost.

Hi Brian,
This is Ramit from PBwiki. You can get started by checking out our tour at http://tour.pbwiki.com. If you have more questions, ask in our forums (http://forums.pbwiki.com).
And lots of our users do multiple pages--but if a single page is easier for you, go for it!
Thanks for the help Ramit. I think that part of my problem was a dial-up connection. It looks like, as a group, the students are willing to help me figure this out. I am sure that there will be more questions later.
Wiki's do look like very powerful tools for the classroom.
