=Welcome to the Holy Innocents' Summer Reading 2011 Wikispace =

This is a Wikispace designed for faculty to communicate with their students about the shared summer reading experience.

__**Getting Started - Faculty**__ =This wikispace works similarly to a series of interconnected webpages (clickable navigation, etc.). On the left, you'll see the menu that is the key to navigating through our wikispace website. =


 * 1) First, choose your selection from either the (1) Freshmen and Sophomore Reading Selections page or the (2) Junior and Senior Reading Selections page. This will take you to your book's "homepage." I have loaded a series of prompts there for each of you to consider as you prepare. Please fill those prompts in for your respective books by June 30th, 2011. This will go live to students shortly after July 4th.
 * 2) To **ADD / EDIT** a page: On the far right tab of the page (just beneath the red banner at the top of the page), there is a link that will say **Edit**. By clicking on that page, a new screen will open that will allow you to enter text onto the page itself. You should see a familiar (Word-style) toolbar at the top. When finished, hit **SAVE** to close the edit window and add your comments to the Wikispace.
 * 3) For those of you new to wikispaces.com, please check out the tutorial videos here A WikiSpaces Tutorial . Should you need further assistance, shoot me a note and I can talk with you on the phone. 404.839.1884 or quinton.walker@hies.org
 * 4) To **PRINT** a page from wikispaces, click on the arrow (downward pointing triangle) directly to the right of the **PAGE** tab. A list of options will appear, including print and print as PDF (for those of us electronic in nature). That will allow you to quickly print our collective work and use it offline.

 * 1) First, choose your selection from either the (1) Freshmen and Sophomore Reading Selections page or the (2) Junior and Senior Reading Selections page. This will take you to your book's "homepage." By July 5th, your page will be populated with various comments from your faculty facilitators. Use this information as a guide to you while you read.
 * 2) You will also find a copy of the rubric that faculty will be using to assess your performance during the discussion section. Keep in mind that there are incentives for exceptional contributions.
 * 3) Should you need a reminder (or want to share with your family) about the purposes of summer reading, you will find a copy of the letter that has been distributed to all families.
