alice-teacher Thoughts re: repository

[Leslyn Hardee]

You are able to lock pages if necessary so that only administrators can access those pages to make changes, yet through the discussion tab, others can leave feedback and ideas... just in case you were not aware.  I presented on Wiki's at the NC State Gifted Conference two years ago and the 'wiki wizards' were MORE than helpful in accomodating what I needed for my presentation... perhaps wetpain (I am not as familiar with that one, but just as a suggestion).  Thank you letting us know that you have looked into this.  Wikispaces may even be willing to donate a private site as a tax deduction as well.... can't hurt to ask!  
 
Cheers!

We have recently received support to make the project possible, which is very exciting. However, it will take some time to get the repository up and fully functioning. I would be surprised if we see it before next fall. We appreciate your patience.

As with aliceprogramming.net, we take seriously the responsibility to maintain the integrity of all the Alice courses that are being taught. We believe that support materials that include problem solutions and test answers should be protected.

As a gifted specialist; but teacher first-- I can certainly see the impact it has had on my children! As it was origionally created to interest middle school girls to leam them into the S.T.E.M. arena, it is useful across all grade levels! Please let me know how I can be of assistance. One thought may be to create a wikispace where informatin can be posted and shared among users at no cost!
