The course mechanics

Eduzendium courses need a number of help pages in order to function properly within the Citizendium. This course homepage and all its standard subpages have been set up with the standard names in their standard location: A template article to prefill the students's pages with course-specific formatting and content, a template for the metadata of your course's article, and a note informing other Citizens whether they are allowed to edit your course's pages or not. Please modify these pages as you see fit. If you are done, you can delete the whole section The course mechanics from your course homepage.

Project Description

This Eduzendium project is the first of four components of a multi-genre research and writing project (described in full here). In addition to writing encyclopedia articles about individual interest groups, POL 214 students will write opinion essays that use their peers' encyclopedia articles as a research springboard, letters to the editor that respond to their peers' opinion essays, and compositions that reflect on their research and writing process. Grant funding to develop this project was provided by the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology at Illinois State University.

What We'll Be Working On

In the name of good research, good writing, and postive contributions to the online community, you and a partner are responsible for creating a Citizendium entry. Your article should be relevant to your field of study and can focus on an influential person, a specific idea or mode of thought, a technical term, etc.
