Checklist for COM 110 Final Projects
Did your group:
❑ Create a navigation menu on the main page (and individual pages) of the wiki with a list
of individual pages with titles and authors named for each?
❑ Create a new separate page for each subtopic? (Groups may prefer individuals do
this part themselves.)
Did you, as an individual:
❑ Post your own writing to your individual subtopic page(s) in the wiki, at least 1200
words (no maximum limit)? This is the equivalent of a 5-page term paper per person.
(Posting your own work allows me to see who did each piece of writing or added the
photos, etc.)
❑ Break the body of each subtopic page into individual paragraphs, each with one
clearly stated main point?
❑ Post appropriate photos (or other multi-media content: video, audio, etc.) to every
page, and credit them appropriately? And did you remember to use images which are
Creative Commons licensed (with appropriate credits) or which you otherwise have a
legal right to post, per our class discussions about copyright?
❑ Read and use material from at least three reputable and authoritative sources that you
have found, including at least one scholarly source– for example, a peer-reviewed
journal article or scholarly book (or book chapter) published by a university press?
❑ Bring in references to material we read and discussed earlier in class, where
appropriate, as additional sources?
❑ Incorporate APA style in-text citations for all material from your sources? Somewhere in
your page(s), you should each include both direct quotations and information from
sources that you’ve put in your own words, with appropriate citations.
❑ Add a list of references using correct APA style, listing only sources you actually
reference in your writing? (This should not include the “annotations” from the
annotated working bibliography assignment.) Please list references used on each
subtopic page, which is easier for readers to reference while looking at the subtopic
page. Include links to sources and test every link.
❑ Proofread your work?
❑ Copy and paste the text of your individual wiki page(s) into a Word document and
check it using Spelling/Grammar Tools, and make appropriate corrections in the wiki?
This does not replace a human proofreader and all suggestions it makes will not always
be appropriate, but it can help you find places where your writing is not clear due to
grammatical, spelling, and other errors.
❑ Compose a one-paragraph introduction to one group mate’s subtopic page, and post
this on the other student’s page yourself in Week 15? Did this introduction introduce
the ideas in the other student’s subtopic page and make a connection with one or more
of the other subtopics in your group’s wiki? Did you put the header “Introduction” at

the top of your introduction, and “by [name of student who wrote introduction]” at the
end, and then skip a few blank lines before the other student’s subtopic text begins?
❑ Copy and paste the text of your own contribution to the wiki (including your subtopic,
other writing you did) and your introduction to another student’s subtopic to a Word
document? Did you upload this to SafeAssign using the link in Week 15?
