This course is designed to equip you with the skills necessary to become proficient in science writing, specifically as a "Wikipedian", but these skills will also prove applicable to your graduate research and beyond. You will have the opportunity to edit or create actual Wikipedia pages, thereby making significant contributions to global knowledge on topics within the field of molecular biology. In addition, you will cultivate a deeper understanding and appreciation for scientific literacy, precision in writing, and critical thinking.
The Wiki Education module constitutes 20% of the overall grade for Dr. Bass' Advanced Molecular Biology (PCB 5595) course. Online exercises and tutorials from the Wiki EDU course will be spread throughout the fall semester.
All students enrolled in PCB 5595 will be concurrently registered in the Wiki EDU course. This begins with online tutorials, which are due by specified timelines. Towards the semester's end, each student will choose a page to work on, subject to the instructor's approval. They will then present their work in class, which is scheduled to occur in early December.
