Description: YouSay, a protected online discussion forum using wiki technology, is designed to involve students as meaningful partners in school improvement. Through questions, the YouSay wiki guides students to reflect on what they put a lot of effort into learning both in and out of school, and to think about what motivates them to learn even when they have to perservere. Students are asked to connect what motivates them to learn and make suggestions about how schools could improve learning. Students post their responses onto a threaded discussion on the YouSay wiki. The responses will be organized by common themes and published on the YouSay Web site. The project site includes a section for teachers.
