Week 1 Feedback

You missed quite a few wiki skills and requested information. For the wiki skills, consult the list below. For the requested information, if the answer to a question is nothing (e.g., independent research), then explicitly say "none" or "n/a" so that we know it wasn't forgotten.

Items for completion/follow-up:

• Snail mail address
• Upper-division courses (you mentioned not taking them in your email, but have not stated this on the wiki)
• Independent research—if you haven’t done any, still say so explicitly, so that we know you didn’t forget about it.
• Work experience—again, if you haven’t had such experience, just say “n/a” or “none” so that we know you haven’t forgotten this.
• Change summaries—enter these more consistently.
• Create a new wiki page
• Link to a page within the wiki
• Link to an external site
• Comments inside the wiki markup
• Upload and link to an image
• Upload and link to a file
• Assign a category to a wiki page
• Create and use a template
• Link to an assignment (Week n) page

Week 1 Follow-up Feedback

Thank you for filling in some of the missing information/wiki skills from last week. You have some leftover items, and we encourage you to continue filling those out beyond this assignment—you will find that the practice will only make things easier going forward. Here’s the updated list of what we haven’t seen you do yet. (I left in the ones missing last week, but did them in strikeout style so you can see your progress better)

• Snail mail address
• Upper-division courses (you mentioned not taking them in your email, but have not stated this on the wiki)
• Independent research—if you haven’t done any, still say so explicitly, so that we know you didn’t forget about it.
• Work experience—again, if you haven’t had such experience, just say “n/a” or “none” so that we know you haven’t forgotten this.
• Change summaries—enter these more consistently. —Your more recent changes all have summaries; by all means maintain that habit.
• Create a new wiki page
• Link to a page within the wiki
• Link to an external site
• Comments inside the wiki markup
• Upload and link to an image
• Upload and link to a file
• Assign a category to a wiki page
• Create and use a template
• Link to an assignment (Week n) page —You will find that, as assignments accumulate and grow in depth, it will be useful to have links within reach for going back and referring to them; that is why we are specifically asking for this.

Keep up the wiki practice!
