Thanks, Phoebe!
I already reached out to Kathleen earlier, and we are planning an upcoming
chat. If anyone ever has a similar desire to speak about
assignment/curriculum design and/or to get materials, please feel
encouraged to email me directly.

Hi Kathleen!
Quick answer -- have you seen the materials on outreach wiki?
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education_Portal
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/For_educators
also see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SUP -- which is the
"Schools and Universities" portal, with course pages and lots of past
examples, and a place to create a page for our course so volunteers can
help.
I've copied Jami Mathewson of the US education program who can help out if
you've got specific questions, or want materials. Hopefully others can fill
in too.
(And, nice to see a fellow ischooler in this context!)
cheers,
phoebe

Hi all -
Despite my best efforts to stay on top of everything at once, I've been
continually behind on what's up with wikipedia in the classroom.
I am working with a faculty member who is doing a course on women and
electronic music. There are quite a few articles that either don't exist in
this area or could use some editing.
I would love to see some case studies or examples from folks who have
done assignments based around these kinds of articles. We're definitely
thinking of something with a semester-long focus for this course, so I'm
excited, but would love to get some advice/ hear about success stories.
Thanks!
