Psychology Students Learning Projects
I have been teaching a course on learning for some years now, and have encouraged students to work in groups on small research projects. So far the research has been disseminated by the students producing web pages. See web pages on Student web work. The advantage of web pages are that students can see the sort of project that was carried out in previous years, and develop some ideas for their own project,  furthermore they can get the excitement of seeing something of theirs on the www. I was wondering whether, rather than have web pages, alternatively, have students create their pages on a wiki. I could start by perhaps placing a few of the previous years work on wiki.

The structure could be the topics for their research e.g. learning without awareness,  biological preparedness and learning,  learning to put names to faces,   learning styles or strategies .... Then some descriptions etc of the relevant research followed by each groups contributions to the area...

Is this happening elsewhere on wiki? How do I go about it?


 * You certainly can do this at Wikiversity. e.g., as part of Motivation and emotion recently students created E-portfolios - you can visit them via Participants. Happy to help if you want a hand. Sincerely, James. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 19:35, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

 Woof! My name is Jack Russell. I am a dog and a Wikiversity mascot. I am pretty new around Wikiversity. Perhaps we can learn together! Tail wag...
