Order Description
Imagine you are a mental health professional developing a general webpage resource people who are interested in your assigned topic. You will research articles, books and Internet resources for the latest scientific findings and resources for this disorder. You may not use Wikipedia, your textbook, or information from the learning modules; you must gather your own independent information.
Providing an effective introduction to your topic and a conclusion that bring your thoughts together.
Organizing your material in an effective and visually appealing way.
Clearly referencing all of the sources you use and providing hyperlinks to the sources where appropriate.
Including multimedia (pictures, audio, video, etc.) that you think will help a reader better understand the subject you are working on. These can be original creations or something that you found in your research (as long as they are referenced appropriately).
If you are permitted by your instructor to copy content from other websites or documents, first copy the material into Notepad (or TextEdit for Macs) and then paste the Notepad text into your Wiki.

What is schizophrenia? Are there different types? What are positive and negative symptoms? Are there related disorders? What is psychosis? Take the psychosis test linked on the first site.

Finally, find three additional links that are extremely interesting about schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizoid disorder, and the like. Give me five interesting facts from each site. Be sure to provide the site references. Be sure not to just grab the first three sites listed on Google….that’s just lazy. Spend some time looking through them.
Now, watch YouTube on schizophrenia-related subjects. Find at least three great videos (don’t be lazy; watch several and find good ones). Provide site references for at least three and give five interesting facts you learned from each.
