EDUCATION: K-12: TEACHERS: TOOLS: 100,000 Wikis in the Classroom
100,000 Wikis in the Classroom <http://www.wikispaces.com/site/for/teachers100K> Back in January, we decided to offer our Plus Plan to K-12 teachers for free. We didn't set out with a grand strategy, just an interest in helping teachers with our easy to use wiki technology. Over 10,000 educational wikis later, we've heard countless stories of excited students and empowered teachers. They've told us about their collaborative essays, group study guides, online lesson plans, and classroom notice boards coming alive on Wikispaces. Now we're taking the next step - we want to give away 100,000 free K-12 Plus wikis. That includes all the features and benefits that normally cost $50/year - for free. No fine print, no usage limits, no advertising, no catches. We hope that you'll read on, try a wiki at your school, and help us spread the word. <snip> What makes Wikispaces different from other wikis? We make wikis easy to use for everyone, not just technical users. We provide a simple interface, a visual page editor, and a focus on community collaboration. Find out more on our brief tour. Who exactly is this offer for? This offer is available exclusively for K-12 educational use. K-12 means kindergarten through secondary school. It is available worldwide to teachers, students, and educators. What about higher education? What about non-profits? We work with many universities and non-profits and see wikis bringing a lot of value to them every day. Our regular pricing is designed so that our service is accessible to higher education and non-profits as well as individuals and companies. ---------------------------------------- The complete article may be read at the URL above.
