Class Title: Basic Wiki Editing for your User Page

Start Time: Thursday, Feb 21 13:00 (1:00 pm) SLT

Length: 60 Minutes

Location: SLVEC Theaters (select Theater Center on the TP machine when you arrive)

Description: Wikis are a great resource for large groups to share and create information together in. In this class you will learn how to create your own profile page on https://wiki.secondlife.com/ and see on board examples of how the code works within the wiki.

Bring along some pre made text which you would like to add into your wiki profile so you can concentrate on how the code works rather than OMG what will I write?!!

It is advantageous to be able to use a web page whilst in Second Life, but don't worry if you can't all examples will be shown on the board. You don't need to be a coder to understand this, it's made to be easy so don't be scared!
