Community+Standards

This wiki belongs to UTPA students enrolled in READ 6351 in fall 2010. All students are expected to participate in constructing our wiki.

__Expectations__

1. The purpose of this wiki is both to provide a place for us to gather information and construct new knowledge about adolescent literacy and content area literacy. All students will add to this wiki by providing new information, pages, and links and/or editing current information.

2. While various students take responsibility for specific topics, all students can edit or revise any content on any part of this wiki (except this page). If you wish to make a major change, however, it is suggested that you discuss it with the original contributor.

3. Any content added to this wiki needs to respect copyright. Any information quoted or paraphrased from other texts or internet sites must be properly referenced. Plagarism will not be tolerated.

4. Writing should be clear and concise. In general, write in Standard English or Standard Spanish with correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation. An exception to this might be if the contributor is sharing examples from students.

5. Contributors are encouraged to include links, images, video, and audio. However, these should be included thoughtfully. Use links when they will clarify the concept or provide context.
