Assignment - Basic Wikipedia training modules

The WikiEdu training modules are necessary for getting started. You can start doing them as soon as you are added to the course, and you are expected to complete all of them by the end of the day on Tue Sep 6. The "Systemic Review" exercise will be discussed in our introduction so the due date is flexible.

Assignment - Editing Wikipedia as a health-professional student

These are additional training modules that are more focused on Health Care professionals. They should also be completed by the end of the day on Wed Sep 6.

Assignment - How to assign yourself an article for this course

Guide(s) for writing articles in your topic area

Medicine

Assignment - Workplan

By 9:00 am on Fri Sep 8 (before our first weekly check-in), post your final Workplan to your selected Wikipedia's talk page, so that you can engage with the general Wikipedian community members who are interested & actively following your article. If you are working on a team, be explicit about what section(s) you will individually be responsible for.

Consider explicitly declaring any/all of the following (but don't feel limited to these):

Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?
Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article?
Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
Which sections will you prioritize?
What resources do you intend to look up, and when?
How will you decide what things (signs, symptoms, side-effects, etc.) to explicitly include? To explicitly exclude?
Will you also embed additional links to other Wiki pages?
How will you ensure that you are using language that is broadly understood by those outside of your profession?

Handout: Workplan worksheet

In class - Weekly check-in #1: Fri 9/8/23 noon-1 pm EHSEB 3420 (or Zoom)

Week 2

Course meetings

Friday, 22 September 2023

Milestones

A month-long course may feel like a long time, but it's remarkably short for this kind of work! You should have begun making edits live on Wikipedia (e.g. not merely in your sandboxes) before the end of this week.

In class - Weekly check-in #2: Fri 9/22 (Time TBD)

On Fri Fri Sep 15 you will present your second draft of your work to your peers. We will give feedback on your evolving thoughts.

Week 3

Course meetings

Friday, 29 September 2023

In class - Weekly check-in #3: Fri Oct 6 Noon-1 pm HSEB 2928

Present your latest progress to your peers. We will give feedback on your evolving thoughts.

Assignment - Peer review an article

Guiding framework

Please perform peer reviews beginning on Fri Sep 22 after check-in #3

What should a peer-review look like? Here's our suggested plan::
- Start by reviewing the stated workplan
- Mention two things they're doing well
- Two things they might improve on
- General principles of feedback (e.g. be SPECIFIC)
- Global impressions of
  - Readability
  - Flow
  - Specific areas to fix
- Whether the level of detail is appropriate or too far "into the weeds" (specifically where?)
- Be nice and professional
- Assume good intent from the writer

Logistical Details:
- Peer reviews are DUE by end of week 3 = Before you go to sleep on Sun 9/24
- Post the peer-review on the TALK page of the article you are reviewing.
Here's a link to a wikipedia peer-review rubric offered by Wiki Ed for evaluating student contributions to Wikipedia articles. While we will NOT formally use the point system, it does provide a nice complement to our "home-grown" peer-review process.

Reach out to your Wikipedia Expert if you have any questions.

In class - Discussion

Assignment - Continue improving your article

Exercise

Now's the time to revisit your text and refine your work. You may do more research and find missing information; rewrite the lead section to represent all major points; reorganize the text to communicate the information better; or add images and other media.

Present your work-in-progress to the class after incorporating changes based on the feedback you receive.

How to respond to the peer-reviewer's comments?

Thank your reviewer for their EXCELLENT peer review
Acknowledge the things you agree with and your intent to address them
Outline things you disagree with so you can either negotiate or justify your viewpoint

If you don't have time or bandwidth to complete all the suggestions declare that for future wikipedians.
Be nice and professional
Assume good intent from the writer

In class - Wrap-up Session Fri Oct 27 (TBD)

On Fri Sep 29 we will convene for a meeting to share accomplishments and discuss lessons learned. Final presentations will be structured as follows: round robin "reports" (maximum of 10 minutes each) from each of you as follows:

What did I accomplish this month (broad overview)?
What did I learn?
What will I take forward with me into the future?
Now in hindsight, is there anything I would have done differently?
