Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2011 Newsletter -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To share your wall with students:    Select the share tab, top right, or share the web address. If you select Email, the wall address will be sent to the recipients in the email. You can also share your wall via a large number of applications such as Google Reader, Twitter, Wordpress. When your wall is finished, or if you wish to post a blank wall to your blog, you will need the embed code.     Choose your wall url (6 – 20 characters). Decide who can view your wall and who can post to your wall.  Select to approve every post before it shows on the wall. This way you can moderate all comments whether they are posted anonymously or by a named student. Choose a theme / colour for the wall and select Done.  Double click anywhere on the wall to add a sticky note. Check out these ideas for using Wallwisher with students. Thanks to Tom Barrett for permission to use and to all the teachers who have contributed to his ‗Interesting Ways to using Wallwisher‘ presentation. Once you have decided on a theme for your wall, you can share the wall with your students.  Go to the Do More tab, top right. Select Embed and the embed dialogue box will present the code. Copy this code and paste using the html tab in your blog application. How can we use Wallwisher in teaching? - as a resource sharer – each sticky opens to a new site / video / image; - evaluations and reviews; - storytelling, webquests, quizzes; - classroom management; - journals, school-life; - matching activities (picture/words for instance); - as moveable magnets… and the list can go on and on… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 17
