Approximately six students associated with this Astronomy class have a strong background in physics and will develop Draft:Bell's theorem paradox. The other students will work through Wikiversity using a kudged alternative to the dashbord that is actually a Matlab-generated table in wikitext:

This table utilizes the subspace structure of Wikiversity by allowing the instructor to assign places for student contributions. Such projects often lead to the placement of sister-links in Wikipedia articles.
