Welcome to the Baker Institute's McNair Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation!
This page will get you - our newest team member - started on setting up your own account on the Wiki and navigating its content management prowess.
Contents
User Account
User Page
Every McNair staff maintains his own personal wikipage, detailing administrative information and professional/academic background, alongside a short autobiography.
Refer to Dylan's Wikipage for inspiration. Or refer to the comprehensive staff list.
Create your own Wikipage by going to Form:McNair_Staff and filing out the form. On the first page of the form use your Full Name with spaces (like Ed Egan), not your username. Fill out the fields. For the image, upload one (see "Upload file" in the left Wiki sidebar) and just put the name of the file in the box (e.g. YourPic.jpg). Finally go to your user page (click your username at the top of the page), edit that page and include the following line:
#REDIRECT [[Full Name]]
Faculty Members to the McNair Center should also fill out a page. Please use this form Form:McNair_Faculty.
Working with the Wiki
At McNair, the Wiki is both home to developed content in the form of an independent public Wikipage, and developing content that will serve a academic paper, issue brief or blog post in the future. It is the research team's main tool for knwoledge sharing, pooling resources, writing and peer-editing.
To get started,
- Basic Wiki Markup Guide
- Forms and Templates - Working with pre-existing ones and making new ones
- When in doubt, contact Ed or ask a friend!
Useful resources from wikipedia:
You should also be creating pages for identified topic areas and to keep track of your projects. You must secure your pages by adding them to : or some other appropriate category, so that they are available only to McNair staff and faculty. If you try to create a page that already exists the form will redirect you to edit that page.
Working with the infrastructure
At McNair, key software and processing power is made accessible to your personal laptop through the Remote Desktop Connection. Follow link for instructions.
Good luck!
Publishing through McNair Accounts
- Find one article per week and send it to the "twitter" Slack channel.
- Some twitter point person will collect all the new articles every Friday, write a short synopsis of them (>140 characters) and add the links in Hootsuite. They'll schedule when the week's worth of articles each go out from the McNair twitter account.
- Ramee Saleh is our twitter point person. She has access to Hootsuite as well. Contact her with any publishing questions.
Blog
Workday Norms
Work in progress by Carlin
- Upon arrival at work, please sign in to the McNair RDP. This is how we track your physical attendance at McNair.
- After signing into the RDP, please fill out your work log. This should include the hours you work that day as well as your intended accomplishments for the day (preferably with links to pages you worked on!)
- Find at least one article per week related to entrepreneurship/another cool, related topic at Rice, Houston, in Texas, or in the United States. Post this article to the Slack #twitter channel.
