 Carpe Diem*--contribute today
*Latin for "Seize the Carp" At least from the intro lecture, I'm thinking (1) as important as vocab terms were for the last section they'll be even more important from this point on and (2) there will be a lot more vocabulary (and tougher to keep up as an individual). What I'd like to do is get people to sign up to regularly contribute to the vocab list. One easy way would be if each of a number of folks committed to do, for instance, the first three words or next three (4-6) or whatever (please sign up on list below by hitting Edit Page above if you feel so inclined). Redundancy is good too since checking each other's work will bring up good points and cull out mistakes. (the above link takes you to the page on our current section, from which you can go to individual lecture pages with their vocab lists)
This feedback/site discussion page is set aside for meta/organizational/technical feedback/suggestions (you can create a new posting for each comment or contribute to an existing one). Any ideas to replace the sign-up list? A few more things: 1. If you haven't already checked out Raymond Cheong's website, it's amazing. He still updates it and posts stuff you send him (I didn't realize that until just before the 2nd exam). He has lots of old lecture notes and plenty of other resources posted (and even notes from folks from this year). http://www.raymondcheong.com/Year1/index.html http://www.raymondcheong.com/Year2/general.html 2. IF YOU KNOW HOW TO DO WEB PROGRAMMING AND COULD HELP MAKE A GOOGLE GADGET TO AUTOMATICALLY GENERATE FLASHCARDS FROM THE LISTS PLEASE CONTACT ME (BENBRINTON@GMAIL.COM) ...(or just talk to me in person) About: This wiki is designed to help us (first year medical students at Hopkins) organize our class notes (with a particular emphasis on concepts surrounding terms and central ideas). Particularly the hope is to tailor these to lecture notes, class discussion, powerpoints, textbook and any helpful (though hopefully accurate) explanatory resource. These entries are actually fairly simple to make once you get going (I have no experiene making websites), so please try it out before the drivel below and massive list of vocab within scare you away. |
