If you want to add your voice to Expii and write an explanation, start by using the search bar or topic map to find a topic to write about. You can add an explanation on any topic page. Here are some general guidelines:
Write an explanation, not just an answer
Think about explaining the topic so that the reader understands it better, not just giving a formula or answer to copy down.
Think outside the box
Do you have a creative way of thinking about the topic? We want you to share your approach, even if it looks different from what you might normally find in a textbook.
Ask questions
Engage your readers by asking questions and prompting them to think about what they're learning – learn more here.
Show, don't (just) tell
Images and videos that are relevant to your explanation can be a great way to get readers' attention.
To help keep this a friendly, educational space, please do not:
Use profanity
Expii is for everyone, so please avoid mature or offensive language.
Copy without citing
It's great if you want to share awesome explanations you've found, but make sure you've got the rights to post it and be sure to cite your source! Check out our terms and conditionsfor more information.
Write carelessly
Students are looking to your explanations for help, so take the time to check for errors.
