HWC10.11 Day 35B - NetGenEd Wiki Instructions


This phase of the NetGenEd Project requires you to collaborate with other students to create an on-line artifact explaining one aspect of the 2013 Horizon Report and the trends characterizing the "Net Generation."   It is essential to add accurate information and to cite your sources both within your text and with formal citations in the proper section.  Further, it is important that you communicate effectively with your team members and that you pay attention to details.  Remember, a high-quality product requires participation and high-quality contributions from all team members!

How to Edit the NetGenEd 2013 Wiki:
IMPORTANT:  ANY edit must be "Saved with Comment."  Further, EVERY edit to the wiki MUST be accompanied by a post & explanation on the discussion threads.


1.  Go to NetGenEd 2013 and sign in.  Read through the "Welcome" on the homepage.

2.  Identify your placement on the Team Grid

3.  Click on your group topic.  Read the explanation of your topic and category assignment.



4.  Then, once you're on your topic page,  scroll down to the bottom of your topic page and add your name to the team list.  Link your name to your personal FCP Ning page.
5. Go to your category(1-8) and read the topic assignment (in italics).  When you are ready to contribute to the wiki, you will click on "edit" for your subtopic and post your research BELOW the italics in your category.  For EVERY post that is made, you MUST "Save with Comment" and BRIEFLY explain (1 sentence) the change you made to the wiki.  Then, you MUST go to the discussion thread for your CATEGORY and explain what you've done, why you've done it, and what questions you have.  If you are still confused, the following video on wiki editing procedures may be useful: http://helps.flatclassroomproject.org/home
