= =1. Wikispaces - you're looking at it!=

This wiki you are reading is composed on wikispaces so you are already familiar with how to navigate it. If not, then simply navigate around. If you'd like to create a page within this wiki, please give it a relevant name and purpose so we can all contribute to it.

Here's what Wikispaces' splash page looks like and note that they offer a specific deal for educators:



Wikispaces also has other features that they up-sell their clients with.



=#2. PBWorks= ====The pbworks website offers more information for educators. Their research highlights the uses and positives of pbworks of course, but the case studies are useful background reading. Additionally, the webinars they provide are helpful to educators new to wikis.====

=#3. Wetpaint wikis= ====Wetpaint, like the other two big players, offer specials and specifics for educators. Wetpaint features ad-free education wikis, however if you click on the link to that feature wetpaint explains that this feature is no longer offered as of August 11, 2009. The reason? It was too expensive to administer, but you can purchase an educator plan that does have ad-free wiki space - that is the choice.====
