    • I gave them several guidelines:
      1. I asked them to post meaningful, relevant information on their topic.
      2. I asked them to summarize information they found on the Net and to link to it.
      3. I asked them to continue to read their topic and ask themselves -- "What do I not understand about this topic?" and then to proceed to answer that question and post their findings.
      4. I asked them to use some of the websites that they read about.
      5. They were not allowed to delete information of another unless it was redundant or they paraphrased/edited it to make it better. (I had two classes working on the same pages so they could experience true collaboration.)
      6. On the third day, I gave each team 5 minutes to present their topic -- they had to summarize and demonstrate the use of their term in action.
      7. At the conclusion of the presentation, I asked all students to post a comment on the page providing feedback or asking questions. (This was just to introduce them to the feature and to keep them focused on the task at hand.)
