MS Publisher: Idea #1: I would use publisher as a teacher centered tool to communicate with parents and colleagues about what is going on in my classroom. This is important as a positive, preemptive communication tool and to help everyone stay in touch.

Idea #2: As a student-centered tool I would have students use MSPublisher to create a travel brochure about the various countries we study in World Literature from different characters' points of view. We could then put these publications together to create a class study guide and discussion points for our conversations.

Wiki: **Idea #1: Collaborative note-taking.** Everyone pitches in and adds a fact or two about a topic. Teachers can encourage students to include opinions, challenges, and appropriate criticism. Students would then write essays using only these notes. Make sure that each addition includes a citation to website, book, or database, including page numbers so that it can be checked.
