Add Your Thoughts... Hi all, Thank you for viewing the English Wizard. I would really appreciate any suggestions you have about this wiki. If you have a moment, please answer the following questions. Thanks, Belinda Tomarchio.

Did you find this wiki useful? Bronwyn Marsh: If I was to create a unit on poetry, this would be the first place to come! You've provided some great resources as well as student tasks and I would definitely find this wiki useful as a teacher.

Robert Bita: The English Wizard has many useful documents, resources and examples. Providing teachers with the up to date curriculum documents aids in all their planning neccassary needs. Your wiki is well organised and easy to read, this makes your wiki appealing for all users.

Jason Pennisi: Belinda this wiki is easy to use and provides some interesting links to inform teachers of the elements of poetry. Students should be able to complete the task with the links you have provided them. On the whole a very interesting wiki!

What page did you find most useful or helpful? Bronwyn Marsh: I think the curriculum page is most helpful for teachers planning units based around the content you have suggested. This page makes it very easy to navigate between the important curriculum documents, essential when planning a unit.

Robert Bita: I found the student samples page most useful. This page was well organised and showed great examples of what the students were expected to accomplish. Was this wiki easy to use? Bronwyn Marsh: I found the headings very easy to navigate and the content was organised in a way that made it very easy to understand the purpose of each page.

Robert Bita: Yes, it was well organised and very well written.

Did you find this wiki organised? Bronwyn Marsh: I found your wiki very organised! I loved how you even organised the comments on your homepage under headings such as 'Who am I?', 'What is a wiki?', etc...

Robert Bita: As stated above

Is there any changes or suggestions you have concerning this wiki? Bronwyn Marsh: They only suggestion I have for your wiki is that perhaps in the student section when you mention having to create accounts with glogster and a blog, you could provide a step by step instruction process for how to do so? Other than that I think your wiki is great!

Belinda Tomarchio: Hi Bronwyn, thanks for your comments and suggestions. With regards to including a step by step instruction page, if you click on the glogster link, it will take you straight to the sign up page.

Robert Bita: Belinda, you could have included appealing pictures to draw your students attention and create a motivational factor for them to continue reading the relevant information provided.

Belinda Tomarchio: Thanks Robert for your suggestions and comments, I have taken your thoughts into consideration and in the future will aim to include more pictures.

Jason Pennisi: Hi Belinda, your page is very appealing but you could have possibly improved the ease of navigation by providing more intra wiki links to efficiently direct students around the site. On the whole a very engaging site!!

Belinda Tomarchio: Jason, thanks for your comments and suggestions.

What grade would you give this wiki out of 10? (10 being the highest). Bronwyn Marsh: I'd probably give your wiki an 8 out of 10! Good work!

Robert Bita: Great work Belinda: 8/10

Anything else? Feel free to add...

Robert Bita: I like the way you have introduced your assessment tasks in the introductory page. Students can see what they have to complete at the start of the wiki introduction before they experiment with the site. Belinda Tomarchio: Hi Robert, thanks for your last comment. Like you, I too think the start of the wiki introduction before they experiment with the site is a helpuful way to begin prompting ideas. ====== Belinda Tomarchio ED3441
