Introduction

Select a topic that includes microbes (bacteria, protist, fungi, or algae). Any kind of topic is possible, because all living organisms and ecosystems include microbes. For example, Google "kangaroo bacteria".

Compose a title for your page. Type your exact title in the Search window, then press Go. The MicrobeWiki will invite you to create a new page with this title.

Open the class template page in "edit." Copy ALL the editable text. Then go to YOUR OWN page; edit tab. PASTE into your own page, and edit.
