The top section is the one that I have used for the students.

toc 1. Do **not** give out your email on this wiki - pass it onto your teacher's spreadsheet to share with others 2. Contribute to the **__discussion tab__** above each time you add to the wiki - let others know what you have done and get to know them 3. Information on this page **MUST** be your own work and **not** copied from books, articles, websites or any other sources of information. 4. Make sure you give **examples** and specific information as **evidence** to support your ideas. 5. **Reference** any sources of information including websites **AND** hyperlink back to sites where you have gained information from. This is **not** a competition to see who write the most. We are looking for your ability to **collaborate** on and **summerise** the global issue. Again - **use hyperlinks** to external sites that help explain information in more depth. = =
