Grading
This assessment gives students the opportunity to practice researching, distilling and presenting their research to a standard appropriate for public scrutiny. Articles will be assessed according to students' ability to research, critique, distil, synthesise and present information from key literature sources. Students are aiming to present information in a neutral, objective and accessible way. The information in articles is expected to be well supported by references to external sources, must not constitute primary research, and must maintain a neutral, unbiased and balanced point of view. Articles will also be assessed according to students' skills in formatting and uploading material to Wikipedia in accordance with Wikipedia standards.

Students' Wikipedia contributions are expected to be in the region of 1500-2000 words.

This assignment contributes 30% to the overall grade for LAWS 322. An additional 5% will also be awarded to those students who edit and improve their pages following feedback from the course instructor (and any other Wikipedia users).
