Teaching with Wikipedia

From Teaching with Wikipedia: A High Impact Open Educational Practice:

cartoon caricature of Jimmy Wales who founded Wikipedia"Supporting higher education instructors who teach with Wikipedia is Wiki Education‘s specialty. We offer free resources for instructors to do this, which take the form of instructional design consultation, assignment management software, tutorials about how to contribute to Wikipedia, and print resources about editing in particular disciplines. These tools all come together in our Dashboard, a free and open-source web application that we consistently improve. In fact, we’ve built a volunteer development community around that continual improvement, and we engage a number of newcomers in this tech development."

“I call my senators, I vote, I donate to the ACLU, and now, I edit Wikipedia."
