==The course mechanics==
[[CZ:Eduzendium|Eduzendium]] courses need a number of help pages in order to function properly within the ''Citizendium''. 
<!--Start of nested section: -->{{#ifexist:CZ:{{PAGENAME}}/Metadata_template|This course homepage and all its standard subpages have been set up with the standard names in their standard location: [[CZ:{{PAGENAMEE}}/Template_article|A template article to prefill the students's pages with course-specific formatting and content]], a [[CZ:{{PAGENAME}}/Metadata_template|template]] for the [[CZ:Metadata#Metadata|metadata]] of your course's article, and a [[CZ:{{PAGENAME}}/EZnotice|note]] informing other [[CZ:Citizen|Citizen]]s whether they are allowed to edit your course's pages or not. Please modify these pages as you see fit. If you are done, you can delete the whole section ''The course mechanics'' from your course homepage.
|The following instructions will guide you through the process of creating these pages. Pay special attention to bolded information just above the edit window. After each step, return to your course homepage and reload it to receive further instructions. You still need to create the following pages (when you see this section disappear, you are done): <br />{{#ifexist:CZ:{{PAGENAME}}/Template_article|
|{{#ifexist:CZ:{{PAGENAME}}/EZnotice|
|{{#ifexist:CZ Talk:{{PAGENAME}}|

==Project Description==

This [[CZ:Eduzendium|Eduzendium]] project is the first of four components of a multi-genre research and writing project (described in full [http://www.ilstu.edu/~sgelbma/igrp.pdf here]). In addition to writing encyclopedia articles about individual interest groups, POL 214 students will write opinion essays that use their peers' encyclopedia articles as a research springboard, letters to the editor that respond to their peers' opinion essays, and compositions that reflect on their research and writing process. Grant funding to develop this project was provided by the [http://www.ctlt.ilstu.edu/ Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology] at Illinois State University.

==What We'll Be Working On==
The following is a list of articles that the members of POL 214 will be working on during the Summer II 2010 semester (July and early August). These articles will be closed to editing by other citizens until after the conclusion of the course, though we'd appreciate hearing any comments or suggestions you might have on their respective talk pages.

For each of the articles you plan to have your students work on, please add a line of the form <nowiki>{{r_EZ|Title of your course's article 1}}</nowiki>, which will display as
{{r_EZ|Title of your course's article 1}}
{{r_EZ|Title of your course's article 2}}
{{r_EZ|Title of your course's article 3}}
{{r_EZ|Title of your course's article 4}}
etc.


Once the articles have been created, they will be listed here in the following formatting:
{{r_EZ|Education}}

Hi all: I am the instructor for this course, and a portion of the course grade will be obtained by participating as an author in the [[CZ:Computers_Workgroup]].  This [[Eduzendium]] project will be described in the coming days in the course syllabus being developed at http://harbormist.com/cis700_08/.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 16:48, 27 June 2008 (CDT)
