Welcome to The Anatomy Wiki
Come learn anatomy! This site began as a class project in summer 2008, and has since become quite popular (> 10,000 visitors per month from around the world). You can browse, or you can participate. If you want to participate you will have to join the site. As a member you can edit any page. There is a new "Getting Started" page and a "How To" page to speed your learning curve for editing a wiki. If you find a useful resource, you can place a link to it on the Online Resources page (by the way, that will point you to many great resources--for a review of those resources check out thinkanatomy.com). You can find flash cards made by others or create your own at Flash Card Exchange. If you decide to create some flash cards, please post links to them on the appropriate pages. At the bottom of any page you can start a discussion thread, or go to the Discussions link to see what people are talking about.
If you have questions feel free to contact Kevin or one of the moderators

Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities--that's training or instruction--but is rather a making visible what is hidden as a seed...
To be educated, a person doesn't have to know much or be informed, but he or she does have to have been exposed vulnerably to the transformative events of an engaged human life... One of the greatest problems of our time is that many are schooled but few are educated. --- Thomas Moore |

Good afternoon all,
Although I realize the purpose of a wiki is that everyone can contribute, the Samford students are working on their wiki pages as part of a grade. So, please refrain (until 15 May) from editing, deleting, or moving any material placed on the wiki by my students. After the semester is over, you can edit our pages to your heart's content. Thanks ! KBakkegard |

There has been some confusion over what I expect. That is understandable because I don't have clearly defined expectations with this project--partly I want you to just surprise me! Here is what I put in the syllabus [with new comments in brackets]:
a. Joining the wiki (5 pts), creating a profile (10 pts) and joining a group (10 pts) in the first week: 25 points. [basically I want people to not wait several weeks to get started] b. Editing a study page on the wiki: 65 points. This is group work, and each group member will report what percentage of the group points they think each person earned. In other words, the page will be graded for the entire group, and what percentage of that grade you get depends on how well you participated with your group. 1) Well organized layout with good spelling and grammar: 20 pts 2) Good supplemental images and videos: 10 pts 3) Links to relevant news articles with short descriptions of the articles: 10 pts 4) Quality of review questions: 15 pts 5) Quality of information: 15 pts 6) BONUS: Good case study: 10 pts CLARIFICATIONS: You do not need to create a new page. You can simply improve upon an existing page. If you want to create a new page (or a new sub page) you may. You can choose a special topic if you wish, but most people will sign up on the 2009 Groups page. Ask any questions you have and I will answer them here or tell you where to look for answers. "How to" questions are also welcome. |
