***Apologies for Receipt of Duplicate Postings***
Friends/

In a recent posting to ILI-L by Kim Duckett, Librarian for
Digital Technologies and Learning, at NC State University
Library,  I was reminded about the Wikipedia: School and
University Projects article in Wikipedia.

The article provides a listing with links of past, present,
and planned projects using Wikipedia as the basis/foundation
of numerous  (writing) assignments.

I have linked to these respective listings and provide
details on various **Suggested Exercises** at 

[ http://scholarship20.blogspot.com/2008/03/wikipe
dia-writing.html ]

The Graphic This Time Is A Classic Internet Cartoon ... [Arf
...]

As Previously Noted, I Would Be Most Grateful To Learn Of
ANY/ALL Other ***Uses of Wikis for Innovative Composition/
Writing*** As Described  in The Associated PPT Noted in My
Earlier Blog Posting 

[ http://scholarship20.blogspot.c
om/2008/03/using-wikipedia-to-reenvision-term.html ]

>>I am Particularly Interested In Innovative
**SCHOLARLY** Composition/Writing in The Sci/Tech
Fields<<

Thanks for Your Assistance!

Dear Gerry & Friends,
 
In response to your call
&nbsp;
Portal to Wikipedia. I would like to call your attention to Knowledge 2008: Encyclopedic Portal, which is a systematic portal to Wikipedia: http://www.success.co.il/knowledge/encyclopedia/index.html

Wiki in academic collages. Collages in Israel apply the Wiki infrastructure in their ;academic portals (see the link: ;http://www.macam.ac.il/ArticlePage.aspx?id=211&referer=%2fDefault.aspx%3f ; Please note that the site is in Hebrew. If you want a translation, please contact me).
 
Structuring Wiki-based projects. Finally, on this occasion I invite you and developers of Wiki-based R&D projects, academic & school projects, and digital libraries&nbsp;to visit my websites (see bellow). If you wish to implement the maps (schemes) in your projects you are invited to do so (pending written licencing). You can find the full version of the knowledge tree at: http://www.success.co.il/knowledge/Map/map-tree.html
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Sincerely,
&nbsp;
Chaim Zins
