Talking about adapting the education program to the future, please,
see the links bellow with the courses about Wikipedia. I've contacted
the author of the course, Max Klein. Let's see how can we improve it.

Wow, that is great! Thanks for sharing, Pau.
There is also this course, which is quite interesting! And even better
that P2PU uses an adequate license, differently from Coursera, which
needs to login to access its classes.
Another course in this School of Open
https://p2pu.org/en/groups/open-access-wikipedia-challenge/
This course has very few content compared to the
assignment material
prepared for the Orientation sessions.
If the assignment material is shared with them, they will probably
appreciate it.
We definetly should find ways to improve P2P courses remixing both
resources and talk to them. In the other course I link above, Open
Acess Wikipedia Challenge, the instructor uses a really nice software
to show him and the screen while teaching how to edit.
For the education program in Brazil we have decided to improve online
tutorials for sustainability and scalability reasons, thus that is a
first step for what we had in mind! I can talk to them later.
