editors, and I suspect that some of them will want to continue to work on their articles even after the semester is over. In workshops and one-on-one meetings, I saw students enthusiastically engage with research and technology in new ways. In at least one case, because an editor suggested the addition of an image, the students really wanted to dig in to policies and procedures to learn how to make it happen. I also saw eyes light up when wikitext was changed to italics, section headings, etc. As an educator who works with technology both as an end-user and as a content-provider, it made me happy to see students excited to learn what goes on behind the scenes. I can only hope that some of those students, now that they have felt the satisfaction of creating web-based content, will continue to develop their skills.

Knowledge. We would not attempt this again without a course page or registering with the appropriate education portals. If we were to undertake this assignment again, we would require students to work with an editor or ambassador in their sandboxes. Finally, we would not plan for all pages to go live—only those approved by the editors—and, their grades would be somewhat tied to that determination.
