Once you have gathered your research from the Web and created 10 flashcards using StudyStack.com, now you are ready to create a wiki! Remember, the purpose of this wiki is to share the info you've gathered about the documents with anyone on the Web who may be interested!

Follow the steps below, if you get stuck, ask for help!

***Only ONE (1) Google Site should be created for the group, so assign one group member to create your Google Sites page for the project! Then, this person should e-mail a link to Mrs. Williams, Mr. Zeller, and all other people in the group! Do this through Gaggle! BUT, everyoune in the group must be  signed up with Google Sites in order to edit the group's page!

All Group Members - Complete the following steps in order to sign up with Google Sites:

1. Go to sites.google.com
2. Once here, you'll need to click on "Sign up for Sites." You will get a new webpage. Fill in the necessary info. Then, you will get a page telling you to go to your e-mail account, open up the e-mail that was sent from Google and click on the first blue link. This will take you back to Google Sites. You are verifying your account info to prove you haven't given a bogus e-mail!
3. Click on "Manage your Account Info." From here, you can personalize your account! Have fun, but be school appropriate!  :0)

ONE Group Member should do the following in order to create a Google Site:

1.   Once you have created a Google Sites account, go back to sites.google.com
2.   Log In using your e-mail and pasword.
