Getting Wiki With It

To prepare for class today many of you completed homework assignment #1 and requested access to the Wiki by 2/7/2014, Thanks for completing that simple task in a timely manner.  Please keep in mind we have two primary websites for this course, they include:

#1 The site your are currently viewing "The Sociology Canvas" is our daily class index of inks and activities  There is no password required for this site and the world can follow along with us a we explore the course the next 18 weeks. This site is your gateway to all of our activities. If you are ever lost, confused, or curious about what we did in class on any given day,  start with the Sociology Canvas. After reading this section of directions please say the word "ardvark" out loud and quietly get back to work

#2 The site you requested access to on Feb 7, 2014, "Ballston Sociology" is our collaborative class wiki. This site is password protected and only our class can view and edit the content. Throughout the semester you will be creating project wiki pages and posting comments to articles, news stories and videos. The work you post and publish will be part of your Final Portfolio. We do not have a final exam in this course, so your published work counts as 1/5 of your course grade. 

START HERE: Please log into our collaborative wiki (Ballston Sociology) using the password you created and click  Creating Your Own Wiki Home Page  link to get started.  You will be completing the following tasks in class today:
