To the left you'll find some links connecting you to the main pages, although you should feel free to add still more pages, if they seem useful to you. Please remember that our honor code governs all posts and discussions, so be sure to be respectful and provide citations for any quotes. Images are a great addition, but be sure to provide a link to the source website and credit them in your text.
You can add to any page by clicking on "Edit," but be sure to click "Save" or else your changes will be lost. Please do your best to be accurate and spell correctly. One of the advantages of the wiki format, however, is that anyone that notices an error can correct it. All modifications are tracked, and these changes can be found under "History." If you're not sure of a change or want to raise a question, please make use of the "Discussion" section of the appropriate page. Hopefully, someone else will notice your post and respond to it. I'm really excited about the potential benefits of this wiki for cooperative study, and hope that everyone will make use of it. It will remain up through the final exam in May.
I'm anticipating that some pages will grow to be quite long, so I'd like us to follow a couple of conventions to make navigation easier. When you're editing a page, you'll notice a box at the top with "normal" written in it. This box provides different text options for headings, etc. Let's use "Heading 1" for the title at the top of each page, and then descend through the other heading options for various levels of subheadings (like outline format). Doing so will automatically generate a linked table of contents for the page that will make it easy to click on the section that you want to read. If you add a page, you can insert a table of contents by using the edit menu to add a widget.
