Questions

=January 17: Questions, Problems, Tips on "Wiki Play"= Be sure to identify yourself. To be consistent, let's type our name before your text. **Another suggestion:** choose a different color and use it each time you write to set your comments apart.

Stephanie: Ok, it is probably just me but I really seem to be having trouble finding the actual pages with the directions to do the tasks. I added the questions page and the directions page to my page to my page but I don't think I did that the right way either......


 * Emmy: Just click on the Home Page **

Stephanie: Is there any way to move the picture that I put on to the top of the page without having to move everything else?


 * Emmy: Stephanie, when you click on the picture, you will see a menu under it. One feature is alignment. I have demonstrate it here with your picture. I chose right align, so it moved it to the right and wrapped text around it **

﻿Irene: I only got through the YouTube video...I assume that we keep it up during the week until we are able to do everything on the sheet. I enjoyed looking at others' pages.


 * Emmy: The goal is to get familiar with the features of wikispaces so you can use it effectively in the work ahead. I don't expect you to use an inordinate amount of time on your own. If you are having trouble with something and feel you are spending too much time, please get in touch with me. **

Amy: I do not have any power point presentations saved. So I went online to download one, but I cannot seem to figure it out. I can download it to my computer, but I still cannot open it! Frustrating! Any suggestions?

Stephanie: It would probably be easier just to make up your own then put it onto your page. I am going to do that tomorrow. Do you have prep tomorrow we can work on it together .

**Emmy**: **I think that is a good suggestion. Just create a 3-5 slide presentation to try out this feature.**

Amy: I feel really dumb, but I have not done a power point since undergrad. Does every computer have power point on it? If so, where do I find it? I will try to find Stephanie tomorrow, but I have been having several meetings this week during my prep time. If I can't hook up with Stephanie, can someone point me in the right direction?

﻿Carrie: I have two quick questions. I do not have a power point either, and we don't have the program on my computer. If I found one online and embedded it in my page would that work? I found a great one made by a teacher although I would really love to learn how to make a power point. I feel a little behind the times not having made one yet. My second question is that I uploaded a word document into Manage Wiki, but I can't figure out how to get it on to my page. Anyone know how to do this? Thank u!


 * Emmy: Just click "File" on the Edit menu, find it, then either doubleclick it or select it and click "Upload". **


 * Vanessa: I embedded my powerpoint, but within my powerpoint, most of the pages have links to other pages, and the powerpoint presentation is not made with the intention of navigating through it in the order it is shown. (it is a game, so the students keep navigating back to the first slide. On my wiki, the links don't seem to work within the presentation and it appears that I can only go through it in order. Is there a way to fix this? **
 * Emmy: I'm thinking that slideShare probably doesn't support these interactive links. Is the jeo page that the arrow directs them back to a page with many links from which they can choose? Or is it just a page they go back to for information? **
