TL;DR version: * What: Wikipedia & Education User Group Open Meeting * Who: Guest speakers Florencia Claes and Goran Milovanović * When: Monday, September 30, from 17:00 UTC to 18:30 UTC * Where: https://zoom.us/j/876197184 * Why: Be inspired about programs related to Commons and Wiktionary Full version: On behalf of the Wikipedia & Education User Group, we cordially invite you to attend our next Open Meeting on Monday, September 30, from 17:00 UTC to 18:30 UTC. While our name includes Wikipedia, we support the use of all Wikimedia projects in educational contexts. Our guest speakers this month showcase that well! Florencia Claes, Communication and Journalism professor at Rey Juan Carlos University in Madrid, Spain, will speak about how she's helped her students contribute multimedia projects to Wikimedia Commons and add them to Wikipedia, and her current project to collaborate with a documentary filmmaking class to have students shoot videos for Commons. Florencia's talk should be inspiring for anyone who has noticed a trend of students preferring video over text, as we can all learn from her experiences! Goran S. Milovanović, PhD, Data Scientist, Software Department, Wikimedia Deutschland, will speak about the Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard [1], and how it can be used for identifying places for improvement on your language Wiktionary.
