=VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION=
 * I just noticed that a number of students have posted in the Discussion tab up above and on other pages. Please don't do that. Please follow the directions given below and at How to Create a Link. If you have posted something in any of the Discussion tabs, you should probably copy and paste them into the main page. Copy,  then click Edit This Page, and paste. Thanks.1204337094**


 * What is a wiki?**
 * You are probably familiar with [|Wikipedia], an online encyclopedia whose strengths and weaknesses flow from the same source: just about anyone on the internet can create and/or edit just about any page in the project.
 * [|Wikipedia] defines a wiki as "a kind of computer software that allows users to create, edit, and link web pages easily. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites."


 * What is this?**
 * Think of it as a Discussion Board on Caffeine.
 * We will be reading, thinking, and writing about //The House of the Spirits// by Isabel Allende.
 * Chapter Forums are set up with links under Navigation (left sidebar).
 * Each Chapter Forum page will become the entrance (portal) to pages on which you will post your thoughts, i.e. you can't create a Forum but you will create a Topic page. You create a Topic page by making a link to it on the Forum page.


 * How do you create a Topic Page and make a post?**
 * In the left sidebar, click on the appropriate chapter;
 * For example, go to 7. The Brothers and see the TOPICS link list;
 * In the tabs at top, click Edit This Page;
 * Beneath the last topic link (right now there's just a sample link), type the name of your new topic (keep it short);
 * Highlight the text you have just typed and click the earth icon [[image:hyperlink.gif]] OR
 * Place double square brackets ```` at the beginning and ```` at end of your text;
 * Then click Save.
 * Click on the link you have made, which will take you to the new page;
 * In the tabs at top, click Edit This Page;
 * Type your post, and end it with four tildes (~);
 * Then click Save.


 * How will it be graded?**


 * How do you join this space?**
 * Please follow the instructions I will give to you in class. This will help me to keep out the riffraff.

What Should We Do Today?
//Isabel Allende//**
 * Writing is like training to be an athlete. There is a lot of training and work that nobody sees in order to compete. The writer needs to write every day, just as the athlete needs to train. Much of the writing will never be used, but it is essential to do it.
