Welcome

=Welcome to Mount ChemMore=

Our class will be using this as a center for knowledge on the great contributors to the Science of Chemistry!
Students will select a key contributor to the field of chemistry and research both the individual and his or her contributions to the field of chemistry. Students will use their research to create a page on this wiki for others to learn about their Chemistry Great!
 * How does this work?**

You are required to provide a biography, 2-4 pictures of the person, a thorough discussion of the person's contribution to science, and 2-4 pictures and/or diagrams to help reinforce and explain the contribution. You also must provide a list of 3-5 (minimum) additional "distraction pages"
 * What do I have to do?**

We've all been surfing the web, looking for some information and seen another page or link that we click on and the next thing we know, 30 minutes have passed and the page we're on has nothing to do with what we are trying to research. Those really interesting pages that distract us from what we are doing...those are distraction pages. I love distraction pages. I've learned more from distraction pages that any purposeful research I've ever done. You are required to list those distraction pages; that way when your next research assignment comes up you have several potential topics available! media type="youtube" key="QiiyvzZBKT8?list=PL8dPuuaLjXtPHzzYuWy6fYEaX9mQQ8oGr" width="560" height="315" The page must be completed by 10/1/13.
 * What is a "distraction page?"**
 * When do I have to do this?**

You are free to think of anyone that you can convince me made a contribution to chemistry.
 * Who can I do the page on?**

The internet! Books! Google it, Youtube search, read wikipedia for a starting point, find information where ever you can...just be sure to CITE IT!!! you must provide citations for any written material, and you must provide links for any web sources you use. Some good starting points include: @http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_chemistry @http://chemistry.about.com/cs/history/a/aa020204a.htm
 * Where do I get this information?**
