Just like Wikipedia is an Encyclopedia written by everyone, a wiki is an article or webpage that anyone can edit and add to. Wikis allow people to easily collaborate on a project. This semester, we’ll be using wikis to post and edit test questions for Anatomy & Physiology I.

Your assignment is this: 1. Using a Word Processor like Microsoft Word- Write five **GOOD** multiple-choice or True/False test questions and mark the correct answer in **BOLD**. You may **__NOT__** use questions from **__any edition__** of your textbook. If you turn in the same question that someone else has, the first person to put it on the wiki will get credit. The second person will get a ZERO- READ the wiki questions! Make sure your question is completely unique! If you give the wrong answer on your question you will not receive credit for that question.

2. Save your file as “Ch. X Wiki Questions”. **__BE SURE TO SAVE YOUR FILE.__**

3. Print a nice clean hard copy of your Questions. **__This must be turned in to me for grading.__** All wiki questions for a Unit are due in class when you come to take the Test.

4. __**Post your questions on the Wiki- keep the numbering and format consistent.**__ The answers and explanations should be at the END of the wiki. Do not bold answers in the wiki- only the hard copy that you turn in will have the answers in bold.

5. Read and edit questions posted by other students. This is the hard part!

Don’t be afraid to edit someone else’s work - the whole point of a wiki is to make the best available resource for EVERYONE! This is a great opportunity to learn how to give (and receive) constructive criticism. If you want to discuss a specific point in more detail or justify why you made a particular change- feel free to use the discussion board available in Wikispaces.

6. Feel free to add links, images, or embedded media to enhance your question or provide a better answer to someone else’s. This is also a good opportunity to include links to websites you found useful in studying a particular topic.

7. __**ANY Question posted to the Wiki is FAIR GAME to be on a Test- EVEN IF WE DIDN’T COVER IT IN CLASS.**__ Don’t post a question that you don’t want to be on a test and don’t let OTHER people post questions that you don’t want to be on a test- work together to make sure that what gets posted is “test worthy”.

**A few common problems**- The wiki editor is not perfect. When you Save your content sometimes the formatting gets messed up- especially outlines and underlining- avoid using outlines/bold/underling as much as possible.

Saving your Word file as as .rtf file and then copy/pasting can sometimes help with this. Or copy/pasting your questions into Notepad and then copy/pasting into the wiki.

If the entire wiki is in serious need of being reformatted, some kind soul should copy the entire wiki, paste into Notepad, adjust any formatting problems and re-paste back into the wiki. That should fix it.

==DO NOT DELETE THE WIKI! Be very careful- you have almost total control over the wiki. It IS possible to delete all of the content on a page. If this ACCIDENTALLY happens email me and I'll try to recover it.==
