Assignment - Exercise

Select one of the biochemistry stubs from this page: Biochemistry stubs


Guide(s) for writing articles in your topic area

Chemistry

Genes and Proteins

Milestones

Once you have decided on an article stub, begin your research. Use the Hunter College Libraries databases to find information you want to add to the stub. You should locate two peer review sources on which to base your contribution(s). There are tips for this in the Wikipedia lesson on BlackBoard.

Assignment - Final article

It's the final week to develop your article.

  • Read Editing Wikipedia page 15 to review a final check-list before completing your assignment.
  • Don't forget that you can ask for help at any time!

Week 13

Milestones

By April 30th, everyone should have finished all of the work you'll do on Wikipedia for the assignment, and be ready for grading.
