**Getting a Wiki**
Normally, you would sign up for a wiki that is hosted for you such as [|Wikispaces], [|PBwiki] and [|Wetpaint Wikis]. Many of these offer free basic accounts but you will need to subscribe to get additional services such as ad free or extra features. Wikispaces is offering teachers extra features that would normally cost money for free at the moment (see comparing wiki services for more information) and the link above takes you in to the correct place to take up this offer.
