Peer Review[edit source]

Your page seems to be very well constructed and I like that the introduction is very clear and is relevant to what the reader will continue to read. The topics seem to be in a great logical order so that the reader can easily follow along. I really like the table you used to compare the various aphasias as it makes it clear to the reader what the differences are between different aphasias. Although I think you should probably cite the table. I feel like it may also be of benefit to you to include citations throughout your page so that persons reading your page will be able to find or refer to the material without looking through all of the references to find the applicable knowledge. It says in the rubric that the citations need to be linked to the references at the bottom of the page. You will need to take out ...., and anything in bold fill in with the correct info. This is the format I used to do mine (I only put .... there so wiki would not convert it) <....ref name="Author, Year">put the APA reference here</ref> and any citations after that you would use <....ref name="Author, Year"></ref> at the bottom of your page under your reference section put <....references/> once and Wikiversity will automatically put all your references there and link them to your citation that you placed throughout your page. This is an example of one of my citations <....ref name="Pang, 2003">Pang, E., Muaka, A., Bernhardt, E., Kamil, M. (2003). Teaching Reading. Brussels, The International Academy of Education.</ref>[1] and to reference it again I used <....ref name="Pang, 2003"></ref>[1] There are a few other ways people have done this so you can look at their pages too or use the help button when editing your page to figure it out. I did a bit of editing on your page and there are some terms that you may want to explain to the reader a bit more or link to a Wikipedia page so the reader can easily access the terms they do not understand. Also, I believe we are not supposed to cite the textbook but rather use the references that the textbook used which you can find in the back of the textbook or deem it common knowledge and not cite it at all. It was good idea to link the treatment to another persons page. I think it would be beneficial to the reader to have examples of what each type of aphasia would look like. There is a place where you can add pictures to your page as well, which may also enhance the appearance of your page. Maybe a picture of where the Broca and Wernicke’s area are would be helpful to the reader. Here is a link to a picture of both areas if you wanted to add it to your page http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Brain_Surface_Gyri.SVG You may also want to find a few more sources or something of interest to the reader that was not in the textbook as well. Other than those few things your page is well organized and looks similar to other pages on Wiki so that is great so have fun with the different tools on Wiki!
