Creating with the Interactive Web

Wiki Project Description

Spring 2014

PART 1:

This project is a research project on a Digital Literacy of your choice. There are five digital literacies discussed in the Text NetSmart, by Howard Rheingold. These subjects are: attention, participation, collaboration, crap-detection and networks

You and your group member(s) will select one of the literacies, and create a research Wiki on the subject. You will describe the literacy in brief. You will find reference materials that discuss the literacy from several viewpoints. (Note: there are several references in the text itself. You can use these, but you must integrate the material into a viewpoint of your own. You shall agree on a viewpoint. This is especially suited to our class, since you have been writing persuasive essays during the term.

1. At least 3 pages of single spaced writing for one person, (5 pages for two people not including references), 7 pages for 3 people.

2. 2 or three video segments (yours or another author’s, properly attributed),

3. Several stills

4. Several charts and/or tables if you can find them

5. A bibliography of at least 8 references, written in appropriate APA format,

6. And a brilliant conclusion.

Title of project is the title of the Wiki. (Note: these links are to a PbWiki, but we demonstrated the same format using Wikispaces in class.

 You may structure your Wiki anyway you like, as long as these sections are accessible from your front page or from your sidebar.
