Wiki Project Update

[AlexReid]

Through the wiki project so far we have built about 30 new pages and 10 of you have created member pages. That would indicate that roughly half of the class is not participating in the wiki project.

Here again is a link to the Wiki Project Assignment. This is 10% of your grade, so you don't want to just skip doing it.

The bottom line is that you should create one new page each week AND contribute to three other existing pages. That's four changes each week. The project has three full weeks, so by the end we should have approximately 60 pages. Each student should have a dozen activities listed on his/her member page (where I have asked you to document your activities).

I think the discrepancy resides in what the exact definition of a "page" is. Maybe you could clearly define this for us. Also I gather some people are asking if you create two pages one week does that mean you don't have to create another page the next? Basically could you put the project off until the last week, or do it all the first week, and create three pages and edit nine in one week and that would still count?

[AlexReid]

The answer to the first question is fairly straightforward. When you are in the wiki, in the upper right hand corner this is a menu. One of the option is "Create a page." I'm asking you to do that once each week.

And yes, you can catch up on your obligations or create two pages in one week or whatever. I mainly want to see regular participation.

Professor Reid, Could you tell me if I am where I should be at this time with the wiki project? Do I seem behind or am I keeping up okay? Thanks

It looks to me like you are pretty much on track. It looks like you've created your personal page, created a page with Vinny, and made some edits to other pages. I'd like to see you create another page this week. Then I'd say you'd be right on track.
