Test+1

Welcome to your Wiki! (for additional help click on this link for student created video tutorials on these WIki topics -or click here: http://saintsquadhelpdesk.wikispaces.com/Wiki+Help) We will use this page to LEARN HOW TO...:

1. Enter text:
To enter text, you first need to get into the 'Edit' mode on this page. Click the Edit button at the top on the right. This makes your webpage an EDITABLE DOCUMENT. You will see your 'floating tool bar. Just start typing. If you want to be fancy, click the **B for Bold**, //I for Italic,// or __U for Underline__ or click the 'T' tool and change the color, size and alignment. When you are done typing - or just to save your work at anytime, click the **Save** button on the floating toolbar. Now your document is back to being a WEBPAGE. You can practice typing in text here:

2. Create a link:
Create a new tab in your browser. Go to File > New Tab. Visit one of your FAVORITE education-related websites. Copy the URL - the address that begins with the http. Make sure you copy the entire URL or address. Click the EDIT button on this page. Now you have an EDITABLE DOCUMENT. Under this section of text highlight the 'Click here to go to this great site' text. Then, on the floating toolbar click the **Link button**. Click External and paste the link test in the address field. Your highlighted text will appear in the' text field' Click Add Link. Click Save on the toolbar. Now you page is back to being a webpage.

Here is an example: Click [|here to go to my favorite site about animals]. It is the Wisconsin Humane Society. I could also paste the URL and then highlight that address you when you click on it you go to the site. Then, this way, you see the address too. It would look like this: [] The green arrow means that this link will take you to a site OUTSIDE of this wiki - not to another wiki page. Practice Here: For gnarly brewer knowledge click here: [|http://milwaukeebrewers.com]

Click here to go to this great site (Highlight this text to make it 'active' or a hyperlink): (paste your URL in this space.)

3. Upload an image:
Go to Google - or anywhere - and get an image on your desktop or into your documents folder. Use this link for Google images: [] Search for an image - flower, car, school etc...Drag that image onto your desktop or right click and save it somewhere. Check that it is a JPG or JPEG. Edit this page. Now your webpage is an EDITABLE DOCUMENT. Click the File button. Navigate to your image using the 'Upload Files ' button. Click on select when you find it. When you see your image - double click the icon to bring it into (embed) your page. You will get a window next to your image which allows you to make the image bigger (+) or smaller (-). You can also align your image. (To place multiple images on a wiki page - and keep them in order - you will want to use a table.) Practice below:



4. Embed Code from a Web 2.0 Tool:
Click on the link at the top of the page if you want to watch a screencast about embedding code. But, the Spell with Flicker site works great to see it in action. Here is the link to that site: @http://metaatem.net/words/ Type in any word in the field next to the word 'Spell'. I typed in 'Dog.' When it gives you your image you can get a new image for each letter by clicking once on the letter. When you are satisfied find the 'embed code' or 'html' code. It will always begin with <a href="http:... Copy that entire paragraph of text - make sure you get the entire thing. Then come back to your wiki page. Edit your page. Click on the 'Widget' tool on the toolbar. Choose 'other.' Paste your code into that box. Click Save. Click Save for your page. It would be the same procedure for embedding code from any other Web 2.0 tool Try it your self below:
