Student Generated Content

I took a foray into student created content last year, and  I think I was pretty successful.  I had students create their own wiki SQL-Functions.  I had them take the SQL functions that they were learning and put the content into a usable format. They continued to use it throughout the semester as a reference.

This term I was going back to see how the site was doing.  I noticed that it continued to rack up hits over the summer, which means that the general public has been using the site.  I told those students (they’re now seniors) and they were excited that they actually created something useful.  I’m going to have the current juniors go back into the site and do some clean up and add some new content.
