= WIKI Project = = =

= = In this class project you are going to develop a class student lead WIKI about the concepts found in the textbook. The goal is to avoid sitting in the classroom listening to a lecture and actually learning the information by creating your own knowledge base.

A **wiki** is a collection of web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content, using a simplified markup language. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. The collaborative encyclopedia, [|Wikipedia], is one of the best-known wikis.
 * Definition**

For our project you will be using Wikispaces and everyone in the class will need to enroll to gain access. This is a private space and only your fellow classmates and your instructor can see your work. This project will be ongoing throughout the semester with goals at various points. The goal is that every two – three weeks you will complete a block of 1-3 chapters’ worth of WIKI postings.

In this project you are to research each of the topics posted on the wiki page and edit the page using the guidelines below. You can use videos, blogs, widgets, articles and your writings with references to complete each task. Each time you post you will need to explain how the post meets the learning objectives for the chapters.
