Get It Together

Knowing that student leadership is, for most of you, just a small part of your day, here are a couple tools that can be used for your "regular ed" classes, or as a neat way to get your council or chapter communicating in one location, accessible from anywhere. Think of it as an extension of your office, desk or bulletin board - a place to store information, connect with students, share ideas, work on projects and more!

PBwiki is one we use at MASC/MAHS for a variety of groups - our State Board of Delegates, Camp Staff, and our planning committees for the State Conference. They're easy to use and free. Think of it as a group notebook - everyone can contribute, you control who sees what and who can add/delete content - all online. You can monitor everything that happens through your email, which means one less website to check out each day or each week!

Classroomn is more of a social network. Constantly hearing students talk about Myspace and Facebook? You can fight 'em or join 'em.... here's a social networking site controlled by YOU, the teacher! While we haven't explored this ourselves, we're looking forward to one of you trying it out!!

The purpose of the MASC and MAHS shall be to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership and to develop character in the students of secondary schools in Michigan.
