I have also been working in a draft for course with user Mushii in Spanish I wonder if this course will be open for us to join or to engage on the design of the project. I hope so :)
Seems like a worthwhile idea. Who, if anyone, has taught courses about Wikipedia in the past?
I am, in fact, developing one myself, I am currently working on a draft for Prezi lectures about Wikipedia (they are licensed under CC-BY-SA, and I'd be happy to share them with you if you'd be interested).

Hey folks! I just put up an Individual Engagement Grant proposal for
an idea I've been kicking around for a while now: getting a course
about Wikipedia onto one of the big 'massive open online course'
systems that have been so successful lately (Coursera, Udacity, edX).
Coursera classes typically have tens of thousands of students, so
there's huge potential for recruiting new Wikipedians and bringing
together a lot of the knowledge we've developed about teaching *about*
Wikipedia.
If you're interested, have a look at the proposal:

And if you have an interest in *leading* a MOOC, let's talk.
Cheers,
