  1. The key points relating to the topic that your group allocated are clearly described.
  2. The choice of content, headings and sub-headings, diagrams, tables, graphs show a good understanding of the topic area.
  3. Content is correctly cited and referenced.
  4. The wiki has an element of teaching at a peer level using the student's own innovative diagrams, tables or figures and/or using interesting examples or explanations.
  5. Evidence of significant research relating to basic and applied sciences that goes beyond the formal teaching activities.
  6. Relates the topic and content of the Wiki entry to learning aims of embryology.
  7. Clearly reflects on editing/feedback from group peers and articulates how the Wiki could be improved (or not) based on peer comments/feedback. Demonstrates an ability to review own work when criticised in an open edited wiki format. Reflects on what was learned from the process of editing a peer's wiki.
  8. Evaluates own performance and that of group peers to give a rounded summary of this wiki process in terms of group effort and achievement.
  9. The content of the wiki should demonstrate to the reader that your group has researched adequately on this topic and covered the key areas necessary to inform your peers in their learning.
  10. Develops and edits the wiki entries in accordance with the above guidelines.
Uploading Images
Mark Hill.jpg First Read the help page Images

The following describes how to upload an image with all the information that must be associated with it.

The image must first be uploaded to the site.

  1. Open the left hand menu item “Toolbox” and click “Upload file” and a new window will open.
  2. Click the button ”Choose file” and navigate to where the image is located on your computer and double click the file.
  3. The window will now show the file name in the “Source filename” window.
  4. You can then rename the uploaded file in the “Destination filename” window.
    1. Make sure the new name accurately describes the image.
  5. Add a description of the image to the “Summary” window. Note the description must include:
    1. An image name as a section heading.
    2. Any further description of what the image shows.
    3. A subsection labeled “Reference” and under this the original image source, appropriate reference and all copyright information.
    4. Finally a template indicating that this is a student image. {{Template:Student Image}}

Images not including the above information will be deleted by the course coordinator and be considered in the student assessment process.

Students cannot delete uploaded images. Contact the course coordinator with the file address.

Referencing
Mark Hill.jpg First Read the help page Referencing

All references used in making your project page should be cited where they appear in the text or images.

In page edit mode where XXXX is the PubMed ID number use the following code.

<ref name=”PMIDXXXX”><pubmed>XXXX</pubmed></ref>

For references not listed on PubMed, and text can be inserted between <ref></ref> tags.

Where the reference list will appear make a new section and on a new line the following code. <references/>

Plagiarism
Mark Hill.jpg First Read the help page Copyright Tutorial

Currently all students originally assigned to each group are listed as equal authors/contributors to their project. If you have not contributed the content you had originally agreed to, nor participated in the group work process, then you should contact the course coordinator immediately and either discuss your contribution or request removal from the group author list. Remember that all student online contributions are recorded by date, time and the actual contributed content. A similar email reminder of this information was sent to all current students.

Please note the Universities Policy regarding Plagiarism

In particular this example:

"Claiming credit for a proportion of work contributed to a group assessment item that is greater than that actually contributed;"

Academic Misconduct carries penalties. If a student is found guilty of academic misconduct, the penalties include warnings, remedial educative action, being failed in an assignment or excluded from the University for two years.


Please also read Copyright Tutorial with regard to content that can be used in your project.

--Z3418981 (talk) 14:21, 16 August 2014 (EST) Hey everyone,

What's everyone's ideas about doing the neural system for our project? there are lots of interesting Neurologic deficits that we could talk about!!!

--Z3419587 (talk) 23:25, 16 August 2014 (EST) That's a good idea. Neural system is a complex structure and it should be fun to work on it! Any other ideas?

--Z3374116 (talk) 23:51, 19 August 2014 (EST) I talked to Yas before, sorry couldnt respond faster haha. Agree that Neural system would be interesting to research :p

Do you guys have facebook as well? It might be an additional way to communicate

--Z3422484 (talk) I also agree on this topic being quite interesting as well --Z3418981

--Z3418981 (talk) 10:54, 25 August 2014 (EST) hey guys it's yas! so we each need to choose one of the following: Review the neural system development during the fetal period. Identify current research models and finding. Identify historic findings. Identify abnormalities that can occur in this system during fetal period.

--Z3419587 (talk) 21:07, 25 August 2014 (EST) Thanks! This is vivian. Can I do "the review of the neural system development during the fetal period"? Or if anyone wants to do this section?

--Z3374116 (talk) 12:07, 26 August 2014 (EST) Hey guys, Can i do historic findings for fetal neutral system development :) - Sean


--Z3419587 (talk) 17:47, 26 August 2014 (EST)I have put some subtitles to give a brief structure to our webpage, feel free to change them if you want!


--Z3418981 (talk) 17:51, 26 August 2014 (EST) sure and I'll do the abnormalities - Yas

--Z3419587 (talk) 18:25, 26 August 2014 (EST) hey Yas, see if this helps. <pubmed>25007063</pubmed>

--Z3418981 (talk) 21:14, 26 August 2014 (EST) Thanks Vivian!! the article is very helpful! and the page looks really good too :)

--Z3374116 (talk) 20:18, 26 August 2014 (EST) Hey guys, I think the last entry from my section will help alot in the Development section for our project :) - Sean

<pubmed>17848161</pubmed>

--Z3419587 (talk) 23:14, 26 August 2014 (EST) That's true! thanks Sean :) - vivian

--Z3422484--Z3422484 (talk) 12:50, 27 August 2014 (EST) Hey guys, this is a useful article for the abnormalities area

<pubmed>24664314</pubmed>

--Z3374116 (talk) 23:55, 1 September 2014 (EST) nice one :D How are you guys going with your sections?

--Z3374116 (talk) 12:58, 17 September 2014 (EST) <pubmed>10226791</pubmed> maybe for development

--Z3374116 (talk) 21:12, 20 September 2014 (EST) http://www.ehd.org/cache/pdf/fd7e47f291dded855c38ffb3418fbdc8/timeline.pdf

something which might help us figure out a timeline structure

--Z3374116 (talk) 11:56, 24 September 2014 (EST) http://discovery.lifemapsc.com/library/review-of-medical-embryology A textbook which has great information on the development of the CNS during the fetal period

--Z3422484 (talk) 11:35, 8 October 2014 (EST) Hey guys i will be adding a few extra research articles to the current research tab

--Z3422484 (talk) 11:35, 8 October 2014 (EST) Also is there anything else anyone needs help on as well?

--Z3422484 (talk) 12:09, 8 October 2014 (EST) Forgot to mention that I'll also be adding spinal cord abnormalities

  • Good start on the introduction. Maybe have it used to explicitly state what your entire page will be covering rather than just a background on what the CNS is.
  • You're missing references for the huge chunks of information in the introduction section
  • The image of the timeline of development seems overly complex and I can't tell if you've explained it. If it's not relevant, maybe just come up with your own concise table of what happens during the course of development
  • Maybe think of re-creating some simpler images by hand and uploading them. That way you can choose to focus on what you actually need from the image to show what you're explaining
  • Include the years of when your current findings were discovered
  • For the "abnormalities" section, as there are many, maybe the amount of detail you've included for the first couple of ones isn't needed, but of course, use your own discretion to how much is relevant. Otherwise, the bullet points are a good way to simplify information
  • Collate all your references in the bottom from all the separate sections
