abstract:

The authors, a chemistry professor and a librarian, used a qualitative survey to assess student perceptions of a Wikipedia editing assignment that they included in a large upper-level biochemistry course. The assignment was initially intended as a public-facing alternative to a short research paper, emphasizing information literacy and scientific literacy. The goal of the survey was to use the results to enhance the assignment. The results of the survey and research for the literature review inspired a novel approach to the assignment using the perspective of metaliteracy. This approach encourages students to think critically about their role as scholars in a participatory environment.

摘要：

作者是一位化学教授和图书管理员，他们使用定性调查来评估学生对维基百科编辑作业的看法，该作业包含在大型高级生物化学课程中。该作业最初的目的是作为简短研究论文的面向公众的替代方案，强调信息素养和科学素养。调查的目的是利用调查结果来改进任务。文献综述的调查和研究结果启发了一种从金属素养角度进行作业的新方法。这种方法鼓励学生在参与性环境中批判性地思考他们作为学者的角色。
