Hello to Everyone:


This is a invitation to participate in the co-writing and co-editing of a
comprehensive text on the science of unitary human beings.

The intended purpose of wiki is two fold:

1) to bring together a collaborative participatory community to co-create a
definitive comprehensive explication of the SUHB;

2) to create an online resource that anyone can access for all those who want to
learn about how Rogerian nursing science serves as a foundation for nursing
research, practice, education, and administration.

I have proposed a Table of Contents for the online text, which is open for
discussion and revision.

All I've done so far is create the site, write an introduction and title the
text (see Title Page).

There will be an article on wikis I've written that will be in the next issue of
Visions. The article explains how wikis work, how they are consistent with
Rogerian participatory epistemology, and how a wiki illuminates principles of a
Rogerian-based pedagogy.

This wiki will be a work in progress . . . continually evolving and growing in
depth an diversity as the Rogerian community adds to its content.

You can access the site at:

http://rogeriannursingscience.wikispaces.com/

If you want to be a member of the Rogerian wiki site so you can edit, add to,
expand, and improve the content, email me.

Anyone will be able to read the content, whether they are a participant or not,
by linking to the site.

Welcome to the new age of Rogerian Science . . .We are in the age of
collaboration and knowing participation in change. . . the age of mutual
process.

Are you ready?
