For this blog post, I encourage you to take stock of your ongoing experience with the collaborative Wikipedia project, and to reflect on how you’re approaching the process both independently and collectively. Here below are some guided question to facilitate this mid-project status report.
- How has your group approached the practice and labor of project management up to this point?
- How would you characterize your individual contributions so far? Which tasks are you currently responsible for, and how do they factor into the broader group project?
- Which parts of the project are you most excited for going forward and why? What are you unsure, confused, or nervous about? How can you proactively shore up and resolve these unknowns as time goes on?
- Above all: what value do you imagine this project might have for you as a writer and a learner going forward? How so?
I invite you to approach this blog post as a low-stakes opportunity to get your thoughts out there headed into the drafting stages of your project. Relax your shoulders, speak your truth, and see what insights come of it in the process.
