=Welcome to the MGMS Food 4 Thought Wiki!= This space will help us keep all of our ideas in one place, and allow us to "discuss" ideas with others. Basically, a wiki works like a document when it's in "edit" mode, and then as a web page when you save.

To add things to the wiki:

 * Click on the pencil to edit--this will bring up a word processing tool bar at the top.
 * Move your curser to where you want to add content, and type.
 * When you're finished, click Save in the tool bar--the page goes back to being a web page!
 * You'll see other things--adding links, attaching files, widgets, tables in the tool bar as well. Play with them in the "Sandbox" (see right navigation pane) if you want, or ask Heidi for help using them.
 * Be aware that when more than one person is editting a page at the same time (the wiki will let you know if someone else is currently editting the page), whoever saves first may over-write the other's content.

**How to create a discussion:**

 * Click on the discussion tab at the top to get the message window.
 * In the subject area, type a specific title, such as "I'm wondering if we will have time for breakouts"
 * In the Message area, type in the detail about your subject
 * Click Post
 * You may also reply to other posts in a similar manner by clicking on the post.

How to navigate in the wiki:

 * Click on the page you want in the right navigation pane
 * Use the back arrow to go to the previous page (NOTE: if you "x" out of a page, you will close the wiki)

That's it! For organization, it would be best to add pages for discussions on different topics: break-out sessions, summer reading contest, etc. Let me (Heidi) know on this home page what pages you'd like to see added in addition to these two, and I'll set them up!


 * Note:** Only those of us who are members of this wiki can edit it, but anyone will be able to see it.
