Evaluation Day
(Or, Let’s See Those Wikipedia Articles!)
That was a fast semester. Half a semester really. The first session is officially done today, so I’ve started my evaluations.
First off: The Faith of Graffiti came out very well. This was my first time reading this essay, and I very much enjoyed it. It struck the Mailer chords I’m used to for his work during this time, so writing the WP article was a pleasure. I am pretty pleased with the whole process here. Students tarted by adding to the bibliography, then the whole article grew organically through their research. In fact, half-way through writing, the Wiki Education expert emailed me and suggested it bypass the articles for publication review process and said we should put it up for good article consideration. Way to go, team.
