Usage of this account and student user pages
I see that this account is named for a class, apparently meeting directly, and used by the teacher, and that you are having students user their user page for assignments. I think there would be a better way, because user pages are for students to use to describe themselves and their interests; what you are doing is not building educational resource here. So I'd like to discuss this with you. I'd been noticing many new users creating user pages with roughly the same information.... we get similar behavior from spammers, so, until I did the research and found what you were doing, I was tempted to delete the pages! I won't, don't worry, but we can handle this better. I want to make contact with you before going ahead with changes! --Abd 14:02, 6 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I think what I'd like to do is create a resource, Accounting information systems, and link to a class page under that. This page would be basically controlled by you, but I'll help you to set it up. The assignments would be given there or on a subpage, and students would respond as well, using subpages of their user page. Students might cooperate on a collective response to the assignment afterwards, that would be in mainspace, as a subpage of the class page. Or others could put that together later, but I thought it might be fun -- and educational, because in doing this, students would be reviewing their collective work, and discussing it on an attached talk page. For Wikiversity, it would create an educational resource, and the work is essentially the same as what you are already doing, it would just be done in a somewhat different way. What do you think? --Abd 14:10, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
