This page will detail the settings which are possible with a Moodle wiki activity.
The teacher must first add/create a wiki activity and like other activities the teacher will check the settings.  After saving the settings, someone will be ready to add the first page ([[Viewing a wiki]]).  Here are just the steps to add/create a Moodle wiki and adjust different settings.

*With the editing turned on, in the section you wish to add your wiki, click the "Add an activity or resource" link (or, if not present, the "Add an activity" drop down menu )and choose ''Wiki''.
To create a wiki:
*This will take you to the wiki settings page titled "Adding a new wiki".  
#Click the "Turn editing on" button.
#Select Wiki from the "Add an activity" dropdown menu in the course section where you would like to add the wiki.
#On the Adding a new wiki page, give the wiki a descriptive name.
#In the summary field, describe the purpose of the wiki and what you expect students to contribute.
#Select the wiki type - groups, student or teacher. The wiki type interacts with the groups setting for your course, resulting in 9 options, as shown in the [https://docs.moodle.org/en/Talk:Wiki_module type help pop-up].
#Click the "Show Advanced" button (in Moodle 1.8 onwards) to display additional options (see below).
#Select the common module settings (see below).

== Adding and editing wiki pages ==
*In an existing wiki, the wiki settings can be found in ''Settings > Wiki administration > Edit settings''.


After you've created a wiki, it's available for editing. [[Viewing a wiki]] contains information on adding and editing wiki pages.
==Wiki administration settings==
Peters : Wiki -Unit 1- Observing children- Using Anecdotal Records


==Advanced options==
Child's Name: David Flower 


===Print wiki name of every page===
Page: 5years                                 
If you select this option, the top of each page will have the name of the wiki.


===HTML mode===
Date: 28th January 2016
There are three options: No HTML, safe HTML or HTML only. 'No HTML' will display all HTML tags as tags. 'Safe HTML' will allow certain tags to be displayed. 'HTML only' enables the [[HTML editor]] to display in [[Common_acronyms#N_to_Z|WYSIWYG]].


===Allow binary files===
Time: 10:15 am - 10: 30am
Binary files are graphics, audio, video, and other non-text resources. If you want students to be able to add files as attachments, set this to Yes.


===Wiki auto-linking options===
Place: Star Primary School ( Kindergarten)
A new page can be created in the wiki by typing a word using CamelCase i.e. with a capital letter at the beginning and a capital letter somewhere else in the word. It's called CamelCase because the two capital letters resemble a two-humped camel. CamelCase combines all the words for the link into one word. Each word in the link is capitalized. When a word is added in CamelCase, the wiki automatically creates a new page and makes the word a link. You can disable this feature if you wish, so that typing a word enclosed in square brackets is the only way of creating a new page.


CamelCase is not always desirable, as some text is written in it. For example a file name might be MyFile_2007_Feb.jpg.
Context of event: Before and During a lesson on capacity


===Student admin options===
Observer: Keisha Peters
When students can edit a page, you can allow them certain administrative privileges in the wiki (see [[Wiki administration]]).


===Page name===
You may wish to seed the wiki with a page name for the first page.


===Choose an initial page===
Before the lesson started David was out of his seat. He hit and spat on another child displaying unacceptable behavior in the classroom.  The teacher called him and told him to stand in the corner because he was being disrespectful to the other student.
This can be the first wiki page that is created, or a way to switch to a different front page. Other files in the same directory as the first wiki page you select will also become part of the initial wiki - see:
http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=8501


==Common module settings==
The teacher started the lesson and was reviewing the previous lesson on mass.  She asked a question comparing a book and cotton on a balance/ shop scale.  David, standing in the corner, replied, " the book is light but the cotton is lighter." The teacher smiled at David, saying very good David you are thinking.  Then she asked him to sit.  During the lesson on capacity, as the teacher poured the jar of water into the container, David shouted from his seat, "it looks like a waterfall!"  Then the teacher asked the question what do you see happened here, David shouted "the container is full!" The teacher again replied very good! David smiled and began boasting saying, I got the answer.  As the teacher was about to make another illustration, David slapped the little girl who was sitting next to him.
The [[Common module settings]] section appears in many modules besides wikiIt sets [[Groups]] interactions levels and the ID number.


==Creating a Wiki with Groups (Step by Step Instructions)==
Create a Wiki with Groups Tutorial (Subject: American War Battles)

4. Click the "Save changes" button.
5. On the group page, make sure the ''civil'' group is selected and click the “Add/remove users” button.

7. Repeat steps 2-6 to create three additional groups (vietnam, world1, world2). Make sure to make the appropriate changes to Group name, Group description, and Enrollment key.
8. Return to course page.
'''Create the Wiki'''
1. Turn editing on.
2. Click the drop-down menu for “Add an Activity”. Select “Wiki”.
3. On the “Add a Wiki” page fill in the following:
    - Name: American War Battles

6. This is where you need to stop for a moment and get yourself oriented. Most likely you are on the “Groups wiki for civil” page in the “American War Battles" Wiki since this was the first group you created (this will be shown on the top-left of the page).  If so, you are ready to begin created your Civil War page Wiki. If you would prefer to start with another war, simply click the drop-down on the top-right of the page labeled “Other Wikis:” and choose the wiki group you want to start with.
   
   
7. On the lower portion of the page you should see a bold header: '''Edit this page ‘American War Battles’'''. (I chose to start with the civil group so I will begin editing for the Civil War). Type the following:


[The Battle of Shiloh]
Comments:  David is lacking skills emotionally.  He likes to hit others, wanting attention.  However, he also displayed good listening and cognitive skills as he participated in answering questions, observant and good at comparing.  He was also full of confidence when answering these questions.  From this observation the teacher can develop activities for helping David to develop his emotional skills and to practice self-control.

Peters : Wiki -Unit 1- Observing children- Using Anecdotal Records

Child's Name: David Flower

Page: 5years

Date: 28th January 2016

Time: 10:15 am - 10: 30am

Place: Star Primary School ( Kindergarten)

Context of event: Before and During a lesson on capacity

Observer: Keisha Peters


Before the lesson started David was out of his seat. He hit and spat on another child displaying unacceptable behavior in the classroom. The teacher called him and told him to stand in the corner because he was being disrespectful to the other student.

The teacher started the lesson and was reviewing the previous lesson on mass. She asked a question comparing a book and cotton on a balance/ shop scale. David, standing in the corner, replied, " the book is light but the cotton is lighter." The teacher smiled at David, saying very good David you are thinking. Then she asked him to sit. During the lesson on capacity, as the teacher poured the jar of water into the container, David shouted from his seat, "it looks like a waterfall!" Then the teacher asked the question what do you see happened here, David shouted "the container is full!" The teacher again replied very good! David smiled and began boasting saying, I got the answer. As the teacher was about to make another illustration, David slapped the little girl who was sitting next to him.


Comments: David is lacking skills emotionally. He likes to hit others, wanting attention. However, he also displayed good listening and cognitive skills as he participated in answering questions, observant and good at comparing. He was also full of confidence when answering these questions. From this observation the teacher can develop activities for helping David to develop his emotional skills and to practice self-control.
