How to join us

1. Ask your parents if it's okay for you to join. If they say yes, Special:Userlogin&returnto=Review Squads make yourself a wiki account.
2. Fill out the Review Squad Application and send it to Mel. <note: we need to set up a database to automate this.> The application is just so that we can look at who likes what content without you having to give us any of your personal information.
3. Play with the content. Think of what you like and don't like about it. Is it fun? Hard to use? Does it teach you something? Think of what it might be like for a kid your age in a different country, maybe one who doesn't speak your language or who hasn't used a computer before. Would they experience the material any differently?
4. Fill out a Review Squad Rating Form for each item you review and send it to Mel. <note: we need to set up a database to automate this.> Try to rate and comment on things that haven't yet been reviewed, but do tell us what your favorite and least favorite things are, and why.
