Welcome to our LING2022/6022 wiki site!

How we're going to use this wiki

The way I see this site working for us this semester is that we use it to post useful and/or interesting (ideally both!) information related any of the topics in our course. Many of you have already sent me really interesting links and now you can simply post them here and refer to them in tutorials or (from term 2) in your discussion postings. Also, some of you may want to put up links relevant to your non-academic sources for your Case Study Proposal and Annotated Bibliography (see instructions for this assessment item on Wattle).

To keep things a bit structured, I've created a page for Spolsky's framework and then a page for stuff that doesn't fit into his framework. So all I ask is that you think about which component your contribution pertains to most and then go ahead and add whatever it is you would like to share with us. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this site will grow over the next two months!

Please use the pages to post stuff instead of starting up discussion threads--it will be so much easier for us to see what we're finding and compare notes if we've got a page of information that is being constructed instead of individual conversations at the bottom of the page. See National Lang Pol page for what I've written about Belgium to give you an idea of how I'd like to see us use the wiki.

Before you get started...

Please have a read through the 'Service provider info' by clicking here.

If you've never used a wiki before...

Click here and have a watch of the video clip. That should get you going. Also have a read of the Help, tips and advice page. That information was created for the pilot projects in 2009 by Dr Megan Poore. If you still have NO clue, come see me during office hours and we'll go through the basics.

If I can do this wiki thing (Luddite that I am), ANYONE can.

Honestly.

Hi Jennifer (sorry to bother you on your adventures!)

Just wondering - you gave us some fairly detailed instructions for the case study proposal & annotated bibliography - are there similarly detailed instructions &/or assessment criteria for the case study itself?

I don't mind if there aren't - just checking I'm not missing something that everyone else has found!!

Cheers :)

I was wondering,

am I being too long-winded, or does anybody else find 200 words for a written proposal a little too short to possess any substance?
