use it as a MOOC engine

in the UK!

be created for the needs of their high school students
- News from the Education Program in Thailand
- Though it suffered from terrible earthquakes, that did not stop
content editing in Mexico
- In Serbia, an editathon was dedicated to a specific social issue:
human trafficking
- What can be done in schools that have no Internet access? There's an
experience in Africa
The education Team also wants to invite all education programs enthusiasts
to participate in a conversation about the criteria to endorse Education
