What permissions do professors, students, and outsiders have?
Outside access to this site is a bit more restricted than for most WikiMedia pages. Everyone can read pages on this site, and students can edit their course pages and the help page, as well as add pictures. Professors can do much more. They can contribute to this page (corect mi mispelings), add to the help page, and even edit other faculty member’s pages. Every change is logged with the name of the person who made the change. (Click on the “history” tab at the top of this page to see a list of edits.) This tracking of changes can contribute to a sense of personal responsibility for the wiki and can also help with the grading of projects.
