Welcome
Welcome to the University Innovation Wiki! This is a place forto share ideas, resources and projects. Student Contributors are University Innovation Fellows, a program of the National Center for Engineering Pathways to Innovation (Epicenter), co-managed by Stanford University and Venturewell.
Editing and updating a wiki may be a little bit tricky at first. You can find written directions on how to use universityinnovation.org here, or view the video tutorials below. It will take a few attempts before you become comfortable with the wiki format. If you have any additional questions, please email Katie Dzugan, Katie@universityinnovation.org, or Stacey Mushenski, Stacey@universityinnovation.org.

Cheat Sheet for Codes
For embedding interactive elements, you need to use a widget called a MediaWiki. Below are the codes you need to embed a Prezi or SlideShare presentation, or YouTube video. You will enter the MediaWiki through the 'Show WikiTextEditor' (the link is right above this box). One great thing about a wiki is that you can borrow code from others. By following the 'edit' link on any page, you can go into the 'WikiTextEditor' to copy/paste the code for the page you are populating with information.
For Prezi: {{#Widget:Prezis| }}
- After the line, and before the }} brackets, enter 'id=' followed by the unique the combination of letters/numbers.
For SlideShare: {{#widget:SlideShare | |width=425 |height=348 }}
- In the empty space after SlideShare and before width, enter 'doc=' followed the unique combination of letters/numbers.
For YouTube: {{#Widget:Youtube|}}
- After the line and before the }} brackets, enter 'id=' followed the unique combination of letters/numbers.
Categorizing Your Page
use these brackets [[ ]]. Between them, type [[Category:]].
- Categories include:
- Guides
- Student Contributors
- Resources
- Universities
Additional Tips
- Shift+Return = one line spacing
- Return = double line spacing
- When wanting to list items using numbers (such as this list) make sure to click numbered bulleted option before typing; unlike MS Word, a wiki will not create a numbered list automatically.
