Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Thing 22-Editing Wiki

So below is the link to my school wiki As I said in my previous post I really think that wiki's are super useful tools for students and teachers. They are super easy to edit and can be easily done so be even a novice computer user. My only complaint is that because you aren't working with super technically stuff I have found it hard to sometimes to get all of my information to line up correctly on the page. The spacing on wikispaces is a bit rough around the edges in that you manually have to put in the spacing on some items and adjust them with in a chart etc for other times. Also, sometimes on wikispaces the way something appear on the edit page is not how it appears on the final page. Yet, unless people are as anal retentive as I am about those things then wikispaces is a super easy item for teachers to use as well as students. Yet, we already know that it isn't the students that have the problem with technology!

We have also had our issues with the wiki -- esp. formatting -- we just keep trying different solutions and keep the people in tech support busy!
