'''Exception''': As this page grows, I will take ''completed'' parts (like '''[[PHYS 210 ASSIGNMENT 1: wiki editing]]''') and put them on a page of their own, so that you won't have to scroll down over a lot of material you've seen before to get to the juicy new stuff. -- <br />

I have tried in many courses to get a ''wiki'' going and usually failed. I'm keen to understand why this is so difficult. Part of the problem is, of course, that it is hard to see how one's contribution to a ''wiki'' will be evaluated for (''e.g.'') "participation" credit. I don't blame people for being concerned about this; learning is only partly for fun. Another part is that people don't like to "undo" other people's work, lest it be interpreted as dismissive or insulting. Perhaps one antidote for this problem would be to emphasize the fact that <u>all changes can be "undone"</u>, so no erasure need be permanent. In large famous ''wiki''s like the ''[http://wikipedia.org WikipediA]'' it is amazing how rarely one encounters a ''ko'' (a term from the game of ''go'' in which the two players could go back and forth indefinitely in a battle over one space on the board). <br />
<br />
So this year I am introducing the ''wiki'' as part of the first homework Assignment. Later we might devise a "class project" that uses it in the intended way. Suggestions welcome -- the more specific the better! -- [[User:WikiSysop|Jess]] 12:05, 11 August 2008 (PDT)<br />

We started these pages for those who need help in any of the assignments. Everyone's bound to need help eventually. Who isn't lost at one point or another?<br />
