Project+Instructions

 Collaborative Writing Project 



At this point, we have read the piece, "Green Anaconda", in class. We have also completed RAN charts both as a large group and individually. It is time for you to begin to work in your writing groups. You will need to pool your RAN charts together and analyze your 'wonderings' columns. Look for ideas that are of reasonable scope. Avoid topics that are either too shallow or that could fill volumes. And, of course, pick something that you find interesting and that you think your classmates would as well. Once you have agreed upon a topic, you will use the page with your group's name to teach us what you have learned. Remember, your audience for this piece will be your peers. Some things you should consider when you construct a wiki page:  For the purposes of this project, please limit yourself to the following search engines:
 * 1) Use both graphics and text to keep your page visually interesting.
 * 2) Use headings and subheadings to make it easier to find information on your page.
 * 3) Use the same size and style of font to keep things looking connected.
 * 4) Keep it professional - avoid using different text colors or backgrounds for each section.
 * 5) Use the discussion tab at the top of your page to ask questions of your partners and to communicate your progress to other members of your group.
 * 6) Keep in mind that I can monitor all changes made to any page as well as every discussion. Every time you edit, your name is attached. Please do nothing that is innapropriate or violates our school's [|Acceptable Use Policy] . Consequences may follow.
 * 7) Be creative.
