Hello Tighe,
You are probably aware of the work I do with 7th grade students on
Wikipedia as part of my introductory course to computer science. It is in
French because the school is in Geneva, a French speaking Swiss Canton.
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projet:Cycle-O-Pedia
In 2016-2017 school year we worked with Vikidia:
https://fr.vikidia.org/wiki/Projet:Cycle-O-Pedia/Articles
I still have to decide what to do now. I will probably continue with
Vikidia.
There was a National Geographic article back in 2013:
https://www.nationalgeographic.org/news/web-work/
and I just found out that they re-used my photo on another page:

There are also two short films (in French):

Dear education community,
I've recently been in contact with a researcher who is looking
at integration of Wikipedia into the education system and its usage with
middle school and high school students around the world.
They are seeking any documentation or data that different programs may have
from around the world.
If you have any relevant info to share, please feel free to share on this
thread or by responding directly to me, and I can connect you with the
researcher directly.
Thanks!
Tighe
