[WikiEducator] Re: Increasing Collaboration on WikiEducator

Hi Leigh & Randy I don't see the 3 capability phases (that is; skills development; personal content development projects; and international collaboration on projects) as being mutually exclusive. On the contrary they should ideally all happen in parallel . The challenge for our community is to

[WikiEducator] Re: Increasing Collaboration on WikiEducator

[WikiEducator] Quick tip for people using structured pages in Wikied

If you are structuring pages in Wikied, you may prefer the page title did not display the full path of the page. For example Mainpage/Subpage1/subpage2 If you would prefer this page title to be: subpage2 add the following template at the top of the page: {{ShortTitle}} Thanks Wayne for showin
