Page History

...

• From the home page you can easily access the major branches of the project: Research, Design, and Outreach. Another important branch from the home page is Team Resources
  • What is a child page?
• How do you find
  • Past research
    • lead the team to the Research page and show them the different team represented. Show them a typical research team page. home>research>?
  • Information about other teams
    • Just explain to them again how easy it is to navigate from the home page to all of the team pages
  • Assignments
    • Make sure to show them a few different assignments--highlight how there is information on expected content, formatting, and grading there, but due dates are all on the syllabus
  • Outreach events
    • The outreach team is responsible for maintaining a calendar of all the events that are coming up that they need team members to speak at or help with. These can be found by navigating to Home>Outreach>Events
  • Contact info for other people on the team
    • All team members have to update their contact info on our roster home>team resources>team roster and alumni
  • International experience information
    • home>team resources>team trips and engineers abroad
  • the sandbox
    • This one is trickier because you cannot navigate directly to it, you have to use the search field. The sandbox is not navigable because it is just a place to play--if you are not sure about how to do something, try the code in the sandbox first so you can test if it works without messing up your own wiki page.

How Do We Use the Wiki?

• It is not a historical account, it is a dynamic database
  • Keep information current, updating is better than adding
• Meeting Minutes are done every week on the wiki to chart your progress
• Communication between teams, the engineers in Honduras, outreach, etc

Editing the Wiki

Show everyone how to log in
The most important part of editing the wiki is using the wiki organization guide. Show the team how to navigate from home>team resources>wiki organization guide. Browse the structure of the guide with them--there are directions there for formatting,
