About+OWD-links

OWD-links --
is available for the teachers at O.W. Dillon Memorial Elementary School to be members and contribute to this wikispace. It is available to the public for viewing and, therefore, use of our work product. Due to the nature of this project and a wiki, OWD-links is dynamic and will change frequently with further additions, edits, and probably a few deletions. This can be a resource to use in the classrooms, accessible for students from home, and a means to share 24/7 with our co-workers within our school and educational colleagues across the world.

Note to OWD Educators --
Most likely you have favorite sites bookmarked on your home computer, classroom computer(s), and maybe even on an internet-based bookmarking site you have a great start to help us here! Please join us in taking this one step further and sharing your sites with your colleagues. We will focus first on the sites used in teaching the Louisiana Comprehensive Curriculum. However, the vision is to also include other educational related site categories, personal interest (hobby) sites, and more. A page is established for each grade level to develop for their specific content and/or student use. As teachers collaborate, the vision for the wiki's day-to-day use will evolve. At this time, the vision is to develop: Collaboratively, this wiki along with the resources bank being compiled and located on the school network drive (or burned on CDs) will contribute to each of us being able to do our job more efficiently and therefore, meet the needs of our student's more effectively. Wikispaces has made this site available as a free K-12 educational wikispace - an upgrade from the basic free site. We have 2gb of storage, no ads. and unlimited pages, users, messages. Welcome to Your OWD-links Wiki!!
