If you need help
Engage, communicate, collaborate!
The Physiopedia team is all about collaboration, we are all equal as both learners and teachers. With this in mind please don’t be shy to ask questions, the only stupid question is the one not asked. More importantly, please answer the questions of your fellow team members. We will not always be there to help, especially on busy courses, so help each other where ever you can.
Ask questions in the Task 1: Familiarise yourself with the Physiopedia Project
Lets take a look around Physiopedia:
Your next task is to familiarise yourself with editing Physiopedia by editing your own profile page. When you set up your Physiopedia account a profile page was automatically created for you but you need to personalise the information on the page yourself. Your Physiopedia profile is a great place to promote yourself and your work to clients, colleagues and potential employers, it is also linked to from any edit you make in Physiopedia. Remember this page is publicly accessible so be professional!
Check out this page – Editing your profile
When creating your profile we would like you to do these three things:
- add an image
- add additional text under each subheading where appropriate (you can remove headings that you don’t want to use)
- add a link (perhaps to your workplace or some published work or presentation).
Also make sure that you have a go at editing the Source code, this is the special code behind all the Physiopedia content. To edit the Source code click Edit Source from the drop down menu. Read more about the Source code (also know as wikitext) here – Task 3: Discussion
All the course discussions will take place in Slack. You will have received an email inviting you to our course Slack team when you signed up for the course, if you haven’t received this please let us know.
Please post your discussions in the relevant discussion thread that will be set up for you in Slack. Look under the channels for each specific discussion:
As a team we like to spread the Physiopedia love as much as possible through our professional networks on social media.
