Why+maintain+a+Wiki??

//This teaching round folio is an extension of the folio used for Semester 1. It is already established and has had resources I've drawn on for use in Semester 2. As a wikispaces folio, it is easy to maintain, I have complete control of the content and it is personalised and therefore it is the best way for me that I can manage and access information. I decided to stay with it as I was used to the content and structure of the wiki and knew where to put in extra content that I have gathered during my placement.//

//As long as wikispaces stays up and I keep constant use of the portfolio (which seems very likely as it grows in size), I believe it will have a long life. It is organised in major sections as shown on the homepage, and all pages have links to at least one other page. They follow a semantic path and the page links are related usually on content (for example, a year 7 page will link to year 7 classes I have and will teach in the future).//

//The content is easily editable and therefore as one grows as a teacher, the content can change as well. Lessons can be altered to better suit my possibly changed pedagogical values. I believe that I will be deleting some content of some classes as time goes by, and I will then upload content that will suit the new way I may approach teaching.//

//Another major reason I chose to keep an updated website as opposed to another format, was being motivated by Head of I.T. at McKinnon Secondary's [|Mark Kelly's Website]. This is a great site for constantly managed content and smart reports on content about VCE IT. On looking at this site, I feel a wiki like this at this stage is a good approach at maintainging my own portfolio and hopefully building it up to be as comprehensive as that.//

//NOTE: All worded content that is shown to be updated or added is shown in italics, to show what has been extended.// //Programs or files that are uploaded will be shown with an asterix (*) to show that it is a Semester 2 addition to the wikispaces.//
