First of all I really like what you did to your userpage! It's really organized and neat.

- I think Cardenolides and bufadienolides in "Cardenolides differ from bufadienolides" can be linked to its own Wikipedia pages.

- "Most directly, cardiac glycosides affect...cells to alter its function." : I think "most directly" sounds a little awkward for substituting it with a different word may be a good idea.

- "Normally, these sodium-potassium pumps pump potassium ions in and sodium ions out." : I think "pumps pump" is kind of redundant here

- "This effect leads initially to bigeminy: regular ectopic beats following each ventricular contraction." : maybe link "bigeminy" here if the word is defined on Wikipedia

- "Additionally, these compounds have been implicated in cell growth and signaling pathways and have been suggested to be classified as steroid hormones in their own right" : I think "in their own right" is unnecessary here

Overall, I think you have already made a great contribution and it looks like you are really comfortable with Wikipedia. I found the plant fact interesting. The links to other wikipedia pages are used efficiently and appropriately. I don't know how to tell if you added a picture or not but if you haven't already it might be worth while to add one because you go in depth about the structure.

Added introduction paragraph to Cardiac Glycoside

edit

"Cardiac glycosides are a class of organic compounds that affect the inotropic and chronotropic activity of the heart by acting on the sodium-potassium ATPase pump. Their beneficial medical uses are as treatments for congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias. Nevertheless, they have a diverse range of biochemical effects regarding cell growth and development and have also been suggested for use in cancer treatment."

Class Notes

edit

6/8 Class Notes:

edit

TO-DO: Submit final article pdf + submit reflective essay by 6/16

edit

6/1 Class Notes:

edit
  • First draft information: Focus on reducing technical language so make sure to define all terms such that high-school students can understand them
    • Basically add in a few words/phrase to briefly define the term before using it
  • Next week: Five-minute oral presentation of topic, can use ppt/prezi, have it be internet-accessible
    • Basically share with classmates whatever content I added to my article

TO-DO: Prepare 5 minute oral presentation by 6/8

edit

5/25 Class Notes:

edit
  • Feedback for first drafts will be received by 6/1
  • In-class presentation on 6/8
    • 5 minute presentation on basically on what I added to the cardiac glycoside page+any necessary background
  • Final draft due finals week!
  • Peer Review focus: Tone, Bias, Relevance, Accuracy, Organization, Possible additional information, Clarity, Depth of topic, Grammar
    • Basically whatever I would like others to say on my page, I should say for others'
    • Can also photocopy peer reviews for peer+Professor

TO-DO: Post peer reviews for articles on user page by 6/1

edit

5/18 Class Notes:

edit
  • Print out full article for class next week with what I added highlighted (alternately, with what I did not add highlighted if I end up adding a lot)
  • Final article in Word should be about 1-2 pages of text (single-spaced)
  • Everything should be properly cited (with in-text references)
    • Use about 50:50 primary:secondary sources
    • For medically relevant articles, should cite reviews that are 1-5 years old
  • Media Literacy: recognizing fake news, evaluating articles for bias, looking for what's missing/isn't being shown,

TO-DO: First draft due 5/25!

edit

5/11 Class Notes:

edit
  • For images, make sure to only use public domain free license copyright images
  • Add images by insert--media, can change settings of image with Edit mode
  • Can also upload an image I make of a compound using Pymol and then add it into the article
  • If you do a Google search for an image, the default is to assume that the image is copyright unless you know it is public domain/free license
    • This means that you can cite textbooks but cannot use their images (need to change substantial information and make it your own)
    • If make image from Pymol, just include PDB code for reference

TO-DO: Keep progressing on outline for proposed edits to my article (First draft due 5/25! outline will become live edits)

edit

5/4 Class Notes:

edit
  • May 25: First draft due, so outline will now become live edits on article
    • Also bring hard copies of these to class (mark what I changed) so that Prof. +2 peers can review them-->peers will give feedback on my own page

TO-DO: Summarize what changes you want to make to page on article's talk page and request for feedback from other users about posted outline

edit
  • Post outline of suggested changes to talk page, 1-3 sentences on what each section would include is pretty good

4/27 Class Notes:

edit
  • Generally use secondary sources like textbooks/review articles and some primary literature
  • Helpful reference pages: "WP:REFB" & "WP:CITE"

TO-DO Initial Bibliography with 5 articles + Make first edit to live wikipedia page

edit

4/20 Class Notes:

edit
  • Consider reading choosing articles guideline on website.
  • Generally will be start/stub class article.
  • Try multiple different names for the topic, should prolly be something you're interested in in biochem (any protein/metabolite/process)
  • Balance interest in the topic with usefulness in the course to maximize efficiency.
  • Refrain from really broad topics because the longer the article the less room to expand it
  • Stay away from controversial
  • Be careful about directly medically relevant article because your article shouldn't be used for medical advice
  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cell Biology tagged topics about relevance to MCDB
    • Stub: title+sentence//Start: paragraph//C: barest vestige of an article//B: getting there, on the way//GA: good article//FA: featured article
    • also wiki project on women scientists
  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Women scientists
  • Category:Biochemistry
  • former article suggestions: enzyme catalysis, active site, brown adipose tissue, proton wires, any complex in ETC, any enzyme/metabolite in glycolysis (most C class articles), taste receptors

TO-DO: Edit user page to add 3-5 articles to edit.
