This assignment involves registering with OAD and working within the wiki structure to add one of these new lists, and writing a brief web piece on the venue of your choice (blog, wiki, webpage, etc.), announcing the new list and explaining the purpose and value of the content. The page will be made public and available for other collaborators after marking. This assignment is suitable for students with patience for the picky details of copyediting involved in wiki work, as the list needs to be in the standard format of OAD.\u00a0 This assignment can be handed in in two stages if desired: the OAD page per se should be handed in as soon as it is complete.
