2. Creating User Template
- A user template is a computer program that generates the same content on multiple pages.
- Create a new page and type "template:xyz (xyz here can be the name or initials of the scholar)".
- Go to the newly created template page, type "[[User:Scholar Name|Scholar Name, Educational degree of the scholar]][mailto:email ID of the scholar]" and save the page.
- Note down the name of this saved page and share it with the respective scholar.
3. Creating User Sandbox
- The WikiDoc "sandbox" is meant to be used as a medium to practice basic editing commands.
- It is recommended that the sandbox should be used alongside training on basic editing.
- To create a user sandbox, create a new page and type "sandbox:xyz (xyz here can be the name or initials of the scholar)".
- Note down the name of this saved page and share it with the respective scholar.
4. Assistance and Compliance Check
- After going through the above mentioned steps, coaches should periodically check on their assigned scholars' progress.
- This can be achieved by checking on the individual user sandbox or just by simply asking if any assistance is needed.
- It is crucial to address the concerns and questions of the scholars as they proceed with interacting with the layout and organization of WikiDoc projects.
