Hello,
In India Malayalam community has done some excellent work with school going children on Wikisource. You could write to Shiju Alex < shijualexonline@gmail.com> and Viswanathan viswaprabha@gmail.com. I am copying them to the e-mail too.

Celio has had experience with 14 year-old pupils too. There has been even a couple of articles on media, but all in Portuguese and protected by copyright. But in summary he was a literature professor guiding students on the evaluation and improvement of articles about the book they had read.

Hi everyone,
On the French Wikimini (http://wikimini.org), about 10 to 15% of the articles are being written in the context of such small class/school projects (pupils in the age of 8-15). Some of them even took place in North Africa (French speaking parts).
If this teacher speaks French, he may find some useful information at http://fr.wikimini.org/wiki/Aide:Enseignants. Otherwise, I'm currently in touch with a teacher form Morocco that would be interested in launching an Arabic version of the project. I could connect them if desired.
On Wikipedia in French, there is also a dedicated page, which mentions some interesting projects (usually for older students): http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Projets_p%C3%A9dagogiques. I don't know if a similar page exists on Wikipedia in Arabic.
Kind regards
Laurent http://wikimini.org

Yes Simon that's a great idea, what would be a good sharing space for you?

I’m interested in both of those (particularly the use of Wikipedia & methods of trust, etc.). Could we collate the experiences of people who’ve done work with students somewhere so they’re not muddle on the email list/partly told off-list? J****

Hey Sophie, hey everyone,****
WMDE is happy to share its experiences in working with pupils! Generally speaking, our pupils were a bit older (age 15-18), but surely there are some lessons learned we can contribute. What exactly should this "work with Wikipedia" include? What would the teacher want to achieve with his students? Is it writing articles in Wikipedia (e.g. contribute content)? Is is teaching them how to use Wikipedia adequately (mechanisms of quality assurance, sources, etc.)? It would help a lot to have/define a precise goal for this project (this would also help to provide you with a satisfactory answer).****
Kind regards****

Hi all! ****
There is a teacher in Algeria who's interested to work with pupils, a group of 20 of them, in the age of 12-14 on Wikipedia.****
He'd like to talk to someone who has done this as to learn from that experience. Is there someone on this list who has such experience? ****
Thank you in advance for taking time! ****
