Welcome 6th Graders - Group 01 to the Wiki for our MYP Computer Technology Class.

As mentioned in class, you will be actively participating in this wiki!

But first of all, what is a Wiki? Let's see the definition I found at wiki.org: "A Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and cross links between internal pages on the fly. "

How will you participate in this wiki? You will participate by uploading the research you have done about hardware and software.

Where will you upload your findings? Click in the corresponding section in the left pane. Follow the instructions to upload your contribution.

Good luck and enjoy this new experience! Questions? Send me an email to mjmora@isumail.ac.ug
