=This site demonstrates how a wiki can be used in a Principles of Economics Class!=

To become a member you follow the steps below:
 * How to Join //this Wiki//**


 * Step 1:** Go to http://principles-of-economics.wikispaces.com. (Note you view the Wiki, but not EDIT it yet, that is what you accomplish in the below steps.)
 * Step 2:** In the left navigation frame click **"Join this Wiki".**
 * Step 3:** A new page is displayed "Welcome to Wikispaces". Sign in if you already have an account and go to **Step 7**, otherwise go to **Step 4**
 * Step 4: C**lick "**Make a new account"**. Any name and email address can be used. But, for ease of record keeping, when we teach a class the students are asked to join with the name that appears on the class enrollment sheet. For example for the name "John Doe", the request to join would submit the user name of format of "John.Doe". For the email address students are requested to use their university email address. Upon completing these fields click "**Join".**
 * Step 5:** An email is immediately sent to your email account, in that email click the confirmation link.
 * Step 6:** Go back to http://principles-of-economics.wikispaces.com,
 * Step 7:** In the left navigation frame click on **"Join this Wiki",** and sign in. On the following page in the **Comment (it says optional but it is not optional)** field enter your username, your class (Principles of Economics), your affiliation (e.g. UConn), then click "**Request Membership"**.
 * Step 8:** An email is sent to the instructor to accept your account. Check your email account account periodically to receive confirmation. If the join request is not accepted, most likely you entered a user name the instructor doesn't recognize, so repeat Step 7, or email the instructor.
