== About me ==
== About me ==
I am a 4th year veterinary student at the University of Edinburgh. <br /> e-mail: [mailto:B.A.Koterwas@sms.ed.ac.uk B.A.Koterwas@sms.ed.ac.uk]
Currently, I am a 4th year veterinary student at the University of Edinburgh. I graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in PreMedicine and Anthropology in 1994. In 1996 I completed the Veterinary Technician program at Purdue University. Most of my working career was spent at the San Francisco Zoo. <br /> e-mail: [mailto:B.A.Koterwas@sms.ed.ac.uk B.A.Koterwas@sms.ed.ac.uk]
== What I hope to get out of this project ==
To explore ways in which veterinary students can gather and assimilate information.
== My best learning experience ==
I've learnt best from identifying my own mistakes - That really won't be a viable tact once I'm a vet, though. I have the most fun learning when I can really get dirty and throw my hands into a project. Big diagrams are always a plus.
== Pathology that interests me ==
Clinical Pathology and Gross Necropsies
== Pathology that is difficult ==
Endocrinology
== Day one thoughts ==
I have a lot to learn.
==Three weeks into the wikivet project (or thereabouts)==
I'm more comfortable with the environment.
===Sections I've been working on===
* [[Clinical Biochemistry - Pathology|Clinical Pathology|Clinical Biochemistry]]
* [[Urine Analysis - Pathology|Clinical Pathology|Urine Analysis]]
===What I feel I've gained so far from being involved in the project===
* a wee bit of Wiki acumen
* pathology revision
===Problems or issues that I've had or can forsee===
* I'd love to find some way to integrate information in a visual format, but the mindmap epiphany isn't coming to me yet...
* cross linking information
===My suggestions for improving the way the project works for the future===
* Let me gain a bit more confidence in this before I start critiquing!
===What involvement (if any!) I would like to have with the project in the future===
* help develop more visuals
