Final survey, Education Innovation Project: Last chance to have your say

The final survey for the Education Innovation Project pilots is now online. We'd again love to get your feedback, so if you've got 5-10 minutes, please visit our survey and let us know your thoughts about you found using a wiki in class. Your responses will be used for quality assurance purposes within the ANU, and may be communicated in publications outside the University.

I just want to say thanks to your whole class for taking part in this project. Our next step will be to produce a report to the College that outlines staff and student experiences of using such online tools in class, along with recommendations for any future use.
Thanks once again, and all the best for the end of semester!

HELP: EasyEdit tool bar doesn't load (I can't edit my wiki!)

It's probably because you're using Internet Explorer 6 on campus. Switch to FireFox as your browser and it should work. To use Firefox:

• If you are using an ANU Information Commons computer, go to: Start > Programs > All Programs > A-Z of all programs > Mozilla Firefox and launch Firefox from there.
• Download it for free from the Mozilla site and install it on your computer.

This information can be found on the Help, tips and advice page.

Backing up your work

Although your lecturer is backing up the course site regularly, you, as a student, are still expected to retain a copy of your own work -- just as you are expected to retain a copy of other assessment items, such as essays. The easiest way to keep a copy of your online work is to save the page where your work appears as an html file.

To do this, go to the page you want to save and, in your FireFox of Internet Explorer browser, go to:

• File > Save Page As
• Download the page to your hard drive (or flash stick or other drive) and keep it safe.
  

Each time you publish something new on the class site, you should make a copy of it.
