  Hi Andrew,

   

  Did you attend Peter Nash's excellent presentation at the VITTA VCE day?  

   

  I have also set up a wikispace - for my Software Development 3/4 class.  I must admit that I did not seek out parental permission - Peter Nash has done so with his classes.  As it is a private space with no access from outside, I am not sure if it is necessary, but if you email peter at: nash.peter.n at edumail.vic.gov.au I am sure he would be happy to send you his letter template.

   

  Unfortunately, I do not think there is a way to preview changes and then approve or disallow them.  However, the site does keep track of history and if you turn notifications 'on' you will get an email each time a student posts to a discussion or makes a change.

   

  Hope this helps,

  Adrian Janson

  Hi all

   

  i have just set up a wikispace that i am intending to use with my yr 11 class

   

  (have a look if u like: http://cc-it-2007.wikispaces.com/)

   

  i have a few questions re management:

   

  Have other teachers sought parental permission before allowing studnets access to the wiki?

   

  Can we preview student changes before they are posted to the site?

   

   

   I'd love to have a look at a couple of spaces that are in use by secondary classes

   

  thx,

  andrew grimshaw
