This is the wiki for Dr. Thompson's Engl 201-MT3-s07 and Dr. Scheinfeldt's History 100-MT3-s07. Students in our classes can can research and describe the people, places, events, objects and ideas they read about in Kim Stanley Robinson's The Years of Rice and Salt--or ideas related to the work's genre and method. Group members should click on the appropriate page for their group in the navigation box to the left and then add page entries by clicking on the Add a new page button below the navigation box. Make sure each page is placed under the category for your group.

1. Book 3 (Ocean Continents)
2. Book 4 (The Alchemist)
3. Book 7 (The Age of Great Progress)
4. Alternative History
5. Science & Technology

Group members can edit each others pages but must add an edit note indicating why you made the change. Non group members can only add comments on other group's work. The group is responsible for adding text and links on its main page summing up the entries and linking to the individual page entries by Feb 15th. At least one entry for each group member must be posted before class the day the reading is due.

You can use any source but make sure you cite its title, author (if available), URL, and date accessed. Sites like Wikipedia allow copying directly into your page; on such sites you can follow the model of the Sample Entry for Temur-i-Lang as long as you cite your source, include a link to the GNU Free Documentation License (or other license) on your page, and add the date accessed.
