Welcome
This wiki is dedicated to creating a community of educators, students and community members around Engaged Philosophical Inquiry in British Columbia, Canada, and beyond.

The site will be used to collect insight, resources and ideas for EPI in BC.

Sections
There are many different features we can build into this wiki community, such as polls. For the time being we will have three sections: minutes, decisions and resources. If you click the navigation button at the top of the page you will see these categories as options. Any page coded to one or more of these categories will appear when you click one of those headings. If you create a new page, make sure to add (at the bottom of the editing screen) how you want it organized (into minutes, decisions or resources).

Editorial Policy
Wikis have editors, but not in the sense of academic journals. Editors have the power to protect certain pages, or cancel changes made by persons. They can also ban persons or take away particular editing privileges. Changes you make will not go to the editor first, however. The editor sees the changes after they are made.

There are two kinds of contributions you can make to this wiki: edits and comments.

Edits are changes to the actual articles. An edit will be attributable to you (people can see the editing history of articles) but the document itself will not have clear distinctions between various contributors. In other words, the article will be the final product of all of the edits. This means that we shouldn't be simply deleting ideas we disagree with, but rather adding a new line of paragraph saying "on the other hand..."

Comments are little thoughts added at the bottom of the article where you can say something without actually changing the article. Your name will be directly attached to this.

If you want to volunteer to be an editor for this site, email David Burns (david.burns@kwantlen.ca).

Editors:

David P. Burns, Ph.D., Kwantlen Polytechnic University

Barbara Weber, Ph.D., University of British Columbia
