Hi all, after months of hard work, we are happy to share with all a new video series on the Wikimedia Education Program. You can now watch all 12 episodes on Commons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_in_Education_12-part_video_series , Youtube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w and Vimeo https://vimeo.com/wmfoundation.
With this series, we hope to engage new educators in using Wikimedia projects in the classroom, as well as promote existing resources to support education programs all over the world, like the Education Program Toolkit https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Evaluation/Program_Toolkits/Education and the many brochures https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Brochures for educators.
*What is this video series about?*
*Chapter 1: Introduction and Why do you teach Wikipedia? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxCjD5Yu308&index=1&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Meet Educators and Wikipedia education leaders from around the world who share why they use Wikipedia in classrooms not just as a way to access knowledge, but also a way to develop their students’ capacities, digital know-how and to share knowledge with the world. Learn how the process turns their students from consumers into knowledge producers, leaving behind papers that only the teacher reads for articles that the whole world can access.
*Chapter 2: What was your first Wikipedia article? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfymS0fjejU&index=2&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* How did these educators and Wikipedia education leaders get started? Starting from light copyediting, to translating, realizing information of interest was missing… and creating new articles!
*Chapter 3: The five pillars of Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncZmv-UO_3U&index=3&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* 5 things you must know before you get started on writing on the Wikipedia.
From these 5 rules, the educators reflect on the geopolitical implications
of knowledge production, good online behaviour, and even learning to express knowledge the best we can.
*Chapter 4: Assignments https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFq2s180ny0&index=4&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* How does using Wikipedia in the classroom work in practice? Educators and Wikipedia education program leaders share different experiences and ways to turn the open online encyclopedia into an educational, active learning tool. … and the importance of explaining what plagiarism is, as well as the value of using good references.
*Chapter 5: Brochures and tutorials https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhQ8ndlO6mY&index=5&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Need a little help? Downloading a few brochures can go a long way into learning in more detail how to use Wikipedia as an edtech tool. Follow the link and : https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Brochures
*Chapter 6: The key to a successful education program https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh57hTM-54k&index=6&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Starting small and then growing the educational program seems to be the key. If you are trying to start an education program in your region, experiment with a single teacher, learn from that experience, an then grow the program progressively.
*Chapter 7: Social media & connectivity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh57hTM-54k&index=6&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Social media is an ally to connect with other education initiatives, other educators, and helpful volunteers that can answer questions regarding the use of the internet.
*Chapter 8: Work with the Wikipedia community https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhwcWIUL8_U&index=8&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* A fact to take in consideration: connecting with the community of volunteer that edit the Wikipedia in your language increases the probability of success of your education project!
*Chapter 9: Motivating students https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1J2FcDdSeM&index=9&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Motivating students to learn through editing Wikipedia is not very hard. Here are a few experiences that highlight the value of using Wikipedia as an educational tool, as well as a few tips on specific actions that will fuel their interest even more.
*Chapter 10: Language and translation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADxGmKeLqDM&index=10&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Wikipedia exists currently in 283 languages, and “incubates” many more encyclopedia in other languages. There’s a very high probability that students can work in the language they’re fluent in. Translation can be an activity that will show them the ropes and increase their language skills, on top of developing their knowledge of the subject matter.
*Chapter 11: When to hire an employee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGUSMl7DD38&index=11&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* How do you scale an education program that spans over many classrooms and even many institutions?
*Chapter 12: Success and learning from failure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gH11w0IGz8E&index=12&list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w* Success or failure? It’s all learning! This applies at the student level, but also to the educators’ tasks, and to education program leaders.
*How can you get involved?* We count on you to help us spread the word about this series and to use the videos in your outreach efforts, for training and any other use you can give them! Let us know how you like them, and feel free to translate captions as well.
Thank you to all program leaders who took part in this video production, sharing what you have learned during all this time running your education program. A special thank you to Floor Koudijs, who sparked the first efforts for the series to be and set the wheels in motion for this series to happen.
Have a great week!
Best,
María

Awesome😃 Thanks all😉

Very cool! I am looking to having my university students edit Wikipedia. I tried several years ago, but the students hated the editor. Hope to see that things have improved and are more user friendly. Yes, I bow in admiration to the old school editors, but I am hopeful that I can bring new editors through this task.

Watched them all. They are hugely useful and the release is very timely indeed! This is exactly what we need to forward to an educational organization in Ukraine (they were asking us for something like this.) I think that these kind of interview videos are very important part of outreach and sharing of experiences and we should be making more of these:)

Thanks for sharing this announcement, Maria :)
Calling all Collab members -- who would like to help put together a blog post announcing these videos? I also think there's an opportunity to showcase these videos in our social media channels as well. And use and reuise in various contexts going forward.

Love the videos! They make me even more excited!
I am all about subtitles (disability & education advocate!). I have to admit I was wondering about subtitles when I watched them yesterday. I would be able to do the English subtitles if that would be desired.

Wikipedia exists currently in 283 languages, and “incubates” many more encyclopedia in other languages. There’s a very high probability that students can work in the language they’re fluent in. Translation can be an activity that will show them the ropes and increase their language

on top of developing their knowledge of the subject matter.

Thank you to all program leaders who took part in this video production, sharing what you have learned during all this time running your
education

to happen.
Have a great week!

Hi all,
Love the videos! They make me even more excited!
I am all about subtitles (disability & education advocate!). I have to admit I was wondering about subtitles when I watched them yesterday. I would be able to do the English subtitles if that would be desired.
Thanks!

Congratulations @Giulio on being so quick with the translations and publishing them immediately!
Does anyone have experience with subtitles? It might be interesting to add subtitles to some of the videos for some regions/languages.
Cheers,

Hi all, after months of hard work, we are happy to share with all a new video series on the Wikimedia Education Program. You can now watch all 12 episodes on Commons <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_in_Ed
ucation_12-part_video_series>
, Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84
fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>
and Vimeo https://vimeo.com/wmfoundation.
With this series, we hope to engage new educators in using Wikimedia projects in the classroom, as well as promote existing resources to support education programs all over the world, like the Education Program
Toolkit
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Evaluation/Program_T
oolkits/Education>
and the many brochures https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Brochures for
educators.
*What is this video series about?*
*Chapter 1: Introduction and Why do you teach Wikipedia? <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxCjD5Yu308&index=1&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
Meet Educators and Wikipedia education leaders from around the world
who
share why they use Wikipedia in classrooms not just as a way to access knowledge, but also a way to develop their students’ capacities,
digital
know-how and to share knowledge with the world. Learn how the process turns their students from consumers into knowledge producers, leaving behind papers that only the teacher reads for articles that the whole world
can
access.
*Chapter 2: What was your first Wikipedia article? <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfymS0fjejU&index=2&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
How did these educators and Wikipedia education leaders get started? Starting from light copyediting, to translating, realizing information
of
interest was missing… and creating new articles!
*Chapter 3: The five pillars of Wikipedia <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncZmv-UO_3U&index=3&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
5 things you must know before you get started on writing on the
Wikipedia.
From these 5 rules, the educators reflect on the geopolitical
implications
of knowledge production, good online behaviour, and even learning to express knowledge the best we can.
*Chapter 4: Assignments <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFq2s180ny0&index=4&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
How does using Wikipedia in the classroom work in practice? Educators
and
Wikipedia education program leaders share different experiences and
ways
to turn the open online encyclopedia into an educational, active learning tool. … and the importance of explaining what plagiarism is, as well as the value of using good references.
*Chapter 5: Brochures and tutorials <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhQ8ndlO6mY&index=5&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*

the
link and : https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Brochures
*Chapter 6: The key to a successful education program <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh57hTM-54k&index=6&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
Starting small and then growing the educational program seems to be the key. If you are trying to start an education program in your region, experiment with a single teacher, learn from that experience, an then
grow
the program progressively.
*Chapter 7: Social media & connectivity <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh57hTM-54k&index=6&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
Social media is an ally to connect with other education initiatives,
other
educators, and helpful volunteers that can answer questions regarding
the
use of the internet.
*Chapter 8: Work with the Wikipedia community <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhwcWIUL8_U&index=8&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
A fact to take in consideration: connecting with the community of volunteer that edit the Wikipedia in your language increases the probability of success of your education project!
*Chapter 9: Motivating students <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1J2FcDdSeM&index=9&list=PL
Vx9pX-VnGViiRftTk84fvO9XTVQ_oZ9w>*
Motivating students to learn through editing Wikipedia is not very
hard.
Here are a few experiences that highlight the value of using Wikipedia
as
an educational tool, as well as a few tips on specific actions that
will
fuel their interest even more.
*Chapter 10: Language and translation <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADxGmKeLqDM&index=10&list=P

Hi Roxi! Thank you so much for translating the captions to Spanish! You can start a new srt file in Spanish on Commons. 1. On the file page https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_in_Education_(1_of_12)_Why_do_you_teach_Wikipedia%3F.webm, look at the description box under the "Summary" section. 2. You will see a template that says "Available close captioning", with a field to fill out, and a blue button that says "go". 3. Write "es.srt" on the open field, click "go" 4. Paste the translation of the subtitles with the time stamp.
We are working to add these subtitles to Youtube, as well, but it takes longer on that platform, as it's not built for collaboration, and someone at WMF Communications team has to handle those.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Best,
María

Thank you so much, Maria! It´s done! ☺ I wonder whether we are going to translate the words in English we can see on the video or not. Should we?

Hi Roxi! Thank you so much for translating the captions to Spanish! You can start a new srt file in Spanish on Commons.
- On the file page
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_in_Education_(1_of_12)_Why_do_you_teach_Wikipedia%3F.webm, look at the description box under the "Summary" section. 2. You will see a template that says "Available close captioning", with a field to fill out, and a blue button that says "go". 3. Write "es.srt" on the open field, click "go" 4. Paste the translation of the subtitles with the time stamp.
We are working to add these subtitles to Youtube, as well, but it takes longer on that platform, as it's not built for collaboration, and someone at WMF Communications team has to handle those.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi Roxie, that is more complicated to do, as it is part of the post-production of the videos. At the moment, our videographer, Victor Grigas, is on sabbatical until October. However, we can start a shared document to translate these phrases, and I can make sure Victor gets it when he comes back and we see how we can incorporate them. Because it might imply to generate new videos for each language version, then we should figure out how to include the subtitles, etc.
Best,
María

Working on Ukrainian subtitles, we translated everything, including English phrases on screen and in hardsubs. While playing, Ukrainian soft subtitles appear below English hard ones (they do not overlap) so it is ok for a viewer.

Hi Roxie, that is more complicated to do, as it is part of the post-production of the videos. At the moment, our videographer, Victor Grigas, is on sabbatical until October. However, we can start a shared document to translate these phrases, and I can make sure Victor gets it when he comes back and we see how we can incorporate them. Because it might imply to generate new videos for each language version, then we should figure out how to include the subtitles, etc.
Best,
María

Hi Roxi! Thank you so much for translating the captions to Spanish! You can start a new srt file in Spanish on Commons.
- On the file page
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_in_Education_(1_of_12)_Why_do_you_teach_Wikipedia%3F.webm, look at the description box under the "Summary" section. 2. You will see a template that says "Available close captioning", with a field to fill out, and a blue button that says "go". 3. Write "es.srt" on the open field, click "go" 4. Paste the translation of the subtitles with the time stamp.
We are working to add these subtitles to Youtube, as well, but it takes longer on that platform, as it's not built for collaboration, and someone at WMF Communications team has to handle those.
Let me know if you have any questions!
