Catherine Begbie - Wikispaces is great and easy to use. You can keep up to date on work which you have missed. If your off school you can go on wikispaces to check if homework has been given. It helps you learn a lot, the presentations for revision and notes taken in class are put up online, you can look over them and take extra notes. With the use of wikispaces, it has helped me understand more about English, it helps you learn more. With the usual sitting in class and looking at the board, technology takes it to a new level. Wikispaces is like an english class over the internet, you can have disscussions and upload group PowerPoints and look at each groups ideas. I would recommend wikispaces anytime.

Liam Allan - At first I wasn't too sure about using wikispaces because the academy don't normally try different things, but It is a lot easier to use than Glow! I find it helpful as if I'm ill I can take part in the class online, any powerpoints I've missed I can look back at and take notes on and group work can be shared. I used the site a lot to help me with my revision for my exams which I found very useful, everything I needed was on Wikispaces and If I was unsure about anything there is the opportunity to start a discussion or even send a message to my teacher. I've found Wikispaces so useful I wish I had it for all my subjects for example geography where there are numerous powerpoints that are shown once and forgotten about, It would be nice to look back at them for revision.

Darren- wikispaces..... WOW! I definetly feel this is the future way of learning. I found it really useful when I never got something in class I could come home and easily access what we had done and improve my understanding of the section. Not only was it useful to help my learning I was able to bounce ideas via other classmates and have a discussion on the topic to realise how other saw the point. Due to this my analysis improved greatly as I started to think deeper before coming to a conclusion. The idea of the power points really helped also as well as it was like an on going revision exercise. If I was ever stuck or was unsure about something I could email you (teacher) and find out what the task waS Etc.... So over all I personally feel wikispaces should be a future teaching resource. It would be much appreciated for biology due to the fact there is so much information to learn and taking notes is impossible with the speed my teacher goes.

Corrie D- having wikispaces is very good because all notes can be put up online in one place meaning you can save the class notes that you missed or just to look over them again. The technology is very helpful because discussions can be made with class mates to help to understand things better or get another persons opinion. Also it makes a lot easier when doing group work which i think is an important part of learning. If wikispaces was not used, things would not come together as easy and things would not be able to be accessed easily. Overall i think this really helps with our learning but you have to have a teacher which is prepared to organise the whole thing and keep up to date with the website.
