Testing a reply
This is a test reply in the Communication and interaction function of WikiEducator. I can see a lot of potential for this, particularly to negotiate content while writing open content materials in a collabortive environment and provide quality content that is consensus based.

The possibilities are endless to what can be achieved when great minds collaborate for the common good. Juan Medford
Education is progressive, it's great when professionals can converse together and share their opinion on similar topics, we will all learn from each other.
Me too! That's exactly how I feel. You can't be a good teacher if you're not prepared to learn. --Mary Di Mónaco 02:58, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Yes, when great minds sit together and share ideas possibilities are endless in achieving certain goals and objectives. WikiEducator platform is one such endless and great platforms where people can create content and share with others.

It is really a great opportunity for each Wikibuddy-Iam saying the right thing? to have where to run when things go either right or wrong with their pages, hence creating a harmonous environment of collaboration and mutual understanding... great development

Yeah, I believe that developing lessons or modules for online classes should be a team effort and that the first thing to do is plan first what needs to be taught then proceed with the development of lessons or modules for online classes.

How do you receive notification of these replies if you enter a discussion? ----Jane Brotchie 08:40, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
Hi Jane, have you tried clicking on the "Watch" tab at the top of the page? I think that's how I set up my feed. And now I just replied to another post. --Brenda Hallowes 19:46, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
Yes, i agree with Sanjaya. There is alot of potential of negotiating open content materials in a collaborative environment. Open content can travel well and have no borders or restrictions. When such type of material is developed and posted, people are free to use them and tailor them according to the way they want to use them in a classroom situation. In this case, users won't have a trouble of copyright issues. Though the material developed is open to everyone, quality material is needed to be put on open portal.
