Hello Shani,
We also experimented with teaching Wikidata skills this year with a class
of social media students at Charles University in Prague. First 1.5hour
class introduced Wikipedia, 2nd was about Wikidata and the 3rd was a
hands-on course in Wikidata Query service. The students completed the
course with a basic understanding of how data are mined from WD and what
types of questions can be answered by WD.
If I had a 4th lesson I'd also explain Petscan and/or QuickStatements.

I've been teaching WD as part of my 2 academic courses for the past two
years. I had one 1.5 hour session dedicated to it, where I introduce ways
of contributing and ways of using the data. Their task is usually to add
info regarding the Wikipedia articles they wrote to WD. Students usually
really like the WD Games. They also like things like Histropedia, the
timeline tool.
I know Andrew lee has also tried the latter that this year and created a
session where his students creayed a timelines to explore something.
Other than that, I'm unaware of other efforts to teach with WD, but since
I'm also working on developing a separate elective about it, I'd love to
see what you come up with. :-)
