The wiki behaves differently than a blog or typical website so my usual methods have not worked so far. If anyone reading this knows how to embed a Google Map into Wikieducator, please contact me!Claire Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469996081279966976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581931605568455763.post-45706542813020034662010-07-23T08:56:11.935-07:002010-07-23T08:56:11.935-07:00Hi Karen,

Here's how I did it: go to the FO2010 map, if you are not already signed into Google, sign in, then click on edit. You can now select your marker and make changes!Claire Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469996081279966976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581931605568455763.post-15348775305929881882010-07-23T08:15:32.179-07:002010-07-23T08:15:32.179-07:00Yes that does help.

I see that my location is on the list rather than my name and can't figure out how to change it. Oh well. Nice to see it filling in. Maybe you could post it on the wiki participant's page?Karen Humberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624838483283423092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581931605568455763.post-20519628601467223732010-07-22T20:30:57.366-07:002010-07-22T20:30:57.366-07:00Hi Karen,

Then select 'Create New Map'. Then you give it a name, decide if it will be public or not, and start adding your markers. After that you can send invitations to specific people via e-mail, copy the link to send to people, and/or get the embed code so that you can add it to a webpage, like I've done above.<br />Hope this helps!Claire Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469996081279966976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581931605568455763.post-53325363597809978222010-07-22T15:30:08.126-07:002010-07-22T15:30:08.126-07:00Thanks Claire - this saves me trying to locate all...Thanks Claire - this saves me trying to locate all the participants in my head!

However, I can't place a pin for my location ;-(<br />I can get the map to be listed in "My Maps" (I already have a Google account), but there's no Edit button. If I open one of my own maps that I'd already created, the Edit button appears.<br />Any ideas?<br />Cheers,<br />ChrisChris Woodhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08081417772244164175noreply@blogger.com
