Introduction

This page allows 2009 Students to access their own specific wiki page.

  • Please note that all changes including additions, deletions and edits are logged by the wiki.
  • For individual assessment, specific comments about the course and for your own use, each student has their own wiki page using their student number as a title for the page.
  • Hint - you can quickly get directly to your own page on your own home computer by adding your student number to this link http://php.med.unsw.edu.au/embryology/index.php?title= and then bookmarking.

Group Projects

Select an animal model of development and discuss the models use in understanding embryological development. You may select from the commonly used animal models or select one of your own choosing.

--Mark Hill 12:18, 7 August 2009 (EST) Each group has now selected an animal model to research and done an initial division of work amongst group members.

  • I have added the relevant UNSW Embryology page for background information on your animal model project.
  • Use the Group Talk pages to paste discussion, comments and weblinks.
  • At this stage do not worry too much about formatting etc until you have gathered some information and decided upon the scope.
  • In the next lab you can discuss progress with group members.
  • There will be a brief tutorial on basic editing and formatting of your project page. Here are some Editing Basics to read beforehand and a One page Wiki Reference Card PDF to print out and use to help you with editing.


--Mark Hill 11:31, 2 August 2009 (EST) I would recommend that you put your animal model of choice on the group project discussion page to prepare for a final group decision in Lab 2 this week. No two groups can select the same species.
