= Welcome to the AP Art Space with Ms. Hawkes! =

What is a wiki? How will we use wikis in ART? The word //wiki// comes from the Hawaiian word for "quick." It also stands for "what I know is...." A wiki incorporates both of those meanings - it is a website where users quickly share what they know and will also be a chance for your to share what you do. You will be able to particpate in activities on the website by communicating with your AP art peers to share your own artwork, experience critique feedback, ask questions, and gather even more ideas as you develop your portoflio for The College Board Submission in May. You will have assignments to read, reflect and respond to both in discussion format and with postings.

How do I participate?
 * Please choose from the portfolio pages/areas listed on the right side of this page, and make comments under the "discussion" tabs!
 * Participate in the discussions as presented.
 * You will complete assignments in class that you will be asked to post to the wiki.
 * You may also participate in the wiki discussions.
 * Discussions open to the whole team can be viewed by clicking on the "Discussions" tab above.
 * To see the discussions specific to posted portfolios, select your class on the left, then select the Discussions tab at the top of the the page. Add to the discussion by selecting the topic you wish to comment on.
 * If you reply to classmate's post, you will need to type in his/her username in the "subject" box so we know you you are replying to.
 * Adult guests: Please feel free to participate in the discussions, begin a new discussion topic, or add any content you think would be beneficial to the site.

What if my computer access is limited to school? You can participate in the wiki using any school computer during homeroom, during Husky Period or after school.

=** __​Responsible Wikiuser Guidelines__ **= These are guidelines to follow as you consider posting comments on the wiki. Thank you for being appropriate with your digital citizenship.

Expand upon idea that is presented, do not repeat what someone else has already said: //add// //to it!// If you're leaving comments they should be geared towards constructive criticism, as we do always and is required in any classroom situation- we have practiced this etiquette all year. You can disagree with comments and challenge the thoughts of others, but don't go after the individual. Instead, explain your position and why you may have a different opinion.
 * SUBJECT: consider positive comments of subject.

This site is an online extension of the classroom. School rules apply, so if you wouldn't say it in the classroom, don't say it here.
 * STYLE: Thanks for being appropriate.


 * SIGNIFICANCE:

//Do not use text message typing for this school-related site. K? LOL OMG ...ew //
.
 * You won't necessarily be graded on punctuation and grammar, but your comments about works should reflect what you would say in person as you give your best effort.
