==Welcome to the Wiki site for INT 375 - Language and Society: A forum for student interactive learning==
This site is devoted to advancing your ability to engage a social technology that enhances the your capacity to participate in a learning/sharing community. A powerful feature of a "wiki" is that the content can be editable by anyone having access to the site. "Wiki" literally means quick.commenting (freely and unobstructed) on what each person contributes. It is a way of "giving voice" to ideas as they emerge, although perhaps not fully developed nor richly articulated. But through participative engagement and dialogue, value is created for everyone. We have a number of questions to address as a group as we organize ourselves in this community.
- group purpose?
- various contributions to make?
- the role of each participant?
- How to make steady advancement to meeting our goals?

- Control the rights of anonymous and logged in users through the Control Panel (which can be found in the toolbox on the left side of this page).
- Add the url for your wiki to the Categorized wiki list. Simply edit that page and put your wiki under the appropriate category.
- To increase the amount of space you have for uploads, add links to http://editthis.info from external sites, and go to the Link Quota Page to increase your uploads quota.
- Edit MediaWiki:Sidebar to change the navigation menu
- Add this wiki to some external wiki index:
- If you are feeling adventurous and know a little about web design you can edit the javascript and css to the Header to change the look of your wiki.
- You must log as admin to do this
- Whatever you enter in this page will be added to the html in the header after the standard style sheet, so you can override styles.
- Read the User's Guide for other usage and configuration help.
- Add your wiki to the map of wikis
- Add a message to the Feedback Page if you see anything that could be improved.
