Well, for starters, here's the list that I managed to compile that contains some articles that are examinable in KCSE: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Offline_Projects/Content_Development/Schools/Kenyan_Topics. You will notice that some subjects are still missing such as Agriculture, CRE, etc. In case you can get your hands on the Kenyan curriculum, please do add those topics. And, we are restricted to 250 articles -- so please constrain the articles to the 250 benchmark.

In peace,
Abbas.

Oscar,

Thanks for showing your interest in the Wikipedia for Schools project. I recently asked the team leaders to send me the reports so that I can compile a report of the whole project, so expect a financial report & an ordinary report by next week, latest.

But briefly:

I've attached a doc that describes what the WfS project is all about. We successfully implemented it in Mombasa, Nyeri & Kakamega and what we learnt is that we require a more localized version of the offline wikipedia, as opposed to the one we were using that was based on the British curriculum. I am currently liaising with the Foundation to create us a custom-made version that will suit us.

So if we get the funds and the above-mentioned offline wikipedia, we'll be able to resume with the project.

In what ways is your club willing to assist us?

--Abbas.
