Lengthy article converging all questions
Relevant questions (from 1st assignment)

Notes from in class discussion and things to flesh out over the next week:

1.How to foster collaboration on Topic Page

  • form groups to write on each topic and draw out themes from the questions and their responses
  • write in third person
  • other ideas?

2.Using discussion pages

  • Are there any sort of commenting conventions we could use to help with workflow on developing the Topic Pages?

3.Creating interconnections of topics

  • link to questions within the topic on the main page as part of the text in the topic abstract
  • everybody link their question to another and briefly describe connection

4.How to include whole class in structure discussion/decision

  • provide some reasoning behind our decisions and explain how this form will encourage community effort over many individual pieces sharing a space
  • offer ideas on how we envision the workflow of developing each topic page and what the final product might look like at week 10
  • ask for feedback to consider and for additional ideas on how to develop the framework we are building

5.provide some sample Topic Pages

  • show them to the entire class at one time so the class can provide useful comments and editing on page structure and the sample page is than edited in real time. The class edited sample page than serves as an example----
