Don't You Hate It When...


Your students come to you and say I can not do any work today because another person in my group is absent and they have all the files. I have found a way around this by using PB Wiki. PB wiki is a free website where students can upload files, make comments, post videos, add links, add new pages etc...which ultimately makes group work more efficient and less stressful. I have a group working on the DECA Creative Marketing Project right now. I have only seen one student in the room working on the project but when I log into their page ( I require them to give me access in order to check up on them and also provide assistance as they go) I see that they are all working quite hard on this project just at different times.


I have also used PB Wiki for other projects such as introduction activity in Sports Marketing class. Click here to see what my project was. In order to get the grasp of this project make sure to look on the left at the sidebar box to see all of the students pages.
