This wiki provides an exploration of personal and workplace productivity over several weeks.

The first week (October 1-7) will provide the participant an opportunity to explore the WetPaint environment and utilize the orientation pages to learn how to post comments and replies, edit the content of pages, and add new pages to the wiki. Please click WetPaint Orientation in the navigation panel on the left side of the page to view these short tutorials. Use the techniques for posting comments and replies at the bottom of this page as instructed.

The first topic is orientation to this site (October 1-7). You will learn how to navigate this site.

The second topic is effective time management (October 8-14). You will learn how to assess your time management skills, and also techniques on how to make the time you have more productive. Repeat as necessary for as many topics as you've selected to study.

During the course of the area of focus study, the participant is expected to:
  • read selected articles
  • visit identified web sites (optional)
  • complete related activities (optional)
  • post comments in response to reflection questions posed by the facilitator
  • reply to the comments of others in the group as appropriate
  • collaborate on a "final wiki" by summarizing an assigned area or topic. The Final Wiki will then serve as a knowledge base for others with an interest in the topic.
  • participate in a "culminating activity" by writing an narrative that addresses knowledge gained, plans for further research, and implications for leadership. The Culminating Activity and Final Wiki can be used to document the individual's active participation in the area of focus discussion.
