=WELCOME!! Here Are The Basic Instructions Page=

Wow! Our school is getting into some high tech fun! We are a school community where we share and learn from each other, and this is one way we can do that better while we travel away from our campus. This is a public site, which means anyone can see and post to our wiki. But we ask only students, teachers, and family members of YCIS to post here. If there is any violation of this, or if any member of our community posts items not relating to our EOTC trips, please inform Mr. Westcott immediately to deal with it. So everyone remember, this is a fun place to share and learn about our experience while we travel together.

To the left of this wiki page you will see a 'Navigation' menu which is the first place to go to. Each day will be a different link. Each day's page will include announcements, itinerary of the day (if it is available), or even a summary of what we have done. It will be updated and edited by teachers on a regular basis. Please don't post here, leave that for teachers. Each student has there own page to post their own content to. Also, everyone needs to visit the discussion tab at the top of each day's wiki page. Each day the discussion tab will have different content and you will need to respond to questions posted by teachers, and maybe even student there.

If you have any question, or suggestions to make this wiki community better, please email Mr. Westcott. We want this to be the greatest digital travel scrap book ever.

Each day's wiki page will have a unique set of discussion questions, so be sure to visit the discussion tab each day. Each day's discussion content will be different. This is where you find your required reflection questions and assignments for that day. You can respond directly to posted questions and also view what others have posted as well.
 * Discussions:**

Every daily page has a link to your personal-public page, where you can post pictures and make comments of your trip. It is your personal digital scrapbook that everyone can see. Also, you may be asked to post content, such as links, pictures, videos, or documents on your page as an assignment, requested by one of your teachers. You can also see what other students are posting on their pages by visiting their personal-public page. But, post only on your own personal-public page and not on other peoples' pages. You can use their discussions tab to post messages to them. Again, please only post content relating to our trip together on your page; it is not a page to show you are a fan of Elvis Presley. Please contact Mr. Westcott immediatly if anyone's content does not belong with the spirit of our learning community we share together on this trip. Our wiki site is set up so we all can enjoy sharing and learning from our experience on this trip.
 * Personal-Public Page:**

You will also use you personal-public-page's discussion tab for correspondence with your family, and if you like, with other students as well. Remember, everyone can read your correspondence. It is not private!!
 * Correspondence:**

Again, please be respectful and cautious other people's work. All pages have a tracked history of what is posted and deleted. If you lose content by accident, and don't know how to get it back, please email Mr. Westcott to see if he can help you restore your work.
