Hi Kathleen!

Quick answer -- have you seen the materials on outreach wiki?

http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education_Portal
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/For_educators

also see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SUP -- which is the "Schools and Universities" portal, with course pages and lots of past examples, and a place to create a page for our course so volunteers can help.

I've copied Jami Mathewson of the US education program who can help out if you've got specific questions, or want materials. Hopefully others can fill in too.

(And, nice to see a fellow ischooler in this context!)

cheers,
phoebe

Hi all -

Despite my best efforts to stay on top of everything at once, I've been continually behind on what's up with wikipedia in the classroom.

I am working with a  faculty member who is doing a course on women and electronic music. There are quite a few articles that either don't exist in this area or could use some editing.

I would love to see some case studies or examples from folks who have done assignments based around these kinds of articles. We're definitely thinking of something with a semester-long focus for this course, so I'm excited, but would love to get some advice/ hear about success stories.

Thanks!
