Applications are open from Aug. 15 - Sept. 4. Information session coming up on August 25 at 13:30 UTC. Dear Wikimedians, The Education team at the Wikimedia Foundation is happy to announce that applications are open for the third cohort of the Training of Trainers (ToT) program for “Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom”! This call is open for Wikimedians, educators, and members of mission-aligned organizations who believe in the value of Wikipedia to advance key 21st-century skills <http://www.battelleforkids.org/networks/p21> [1] and who are interested in implementing the “Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom” program in their own countries. Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom <https://wikimediafoundation.org/our-work/education/reading-wikipedia-in-the-classroom/> [2] is a professional development program for teachers that guides them to approach Wikipedia through UNESCO’s Media and Information Literacy framework - leveraging the value of Wikipedia as a pedagogical tool. The educational resources <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_Classroom#Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_classroom_program_modules> of the program have already been adapted to 9 languages [3], and Certified Trainers of the program have led implementations in Nigeria <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_Classroom_Nigeria> [4], Bolivia <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/News/June_2022/Bolivian_Teachers_Welcomed_Wikipedia_in_their_Classroom> [5] and Guinea <https://youtu.be/ENoQjc4IG5g> [6], to name a few countries The Training of Trainers program is a 9-week online learning experience that prepares participants to implement the Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom program locally. By the end of the ToT, successful participants will be certified to lead the Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom program in their countries. Participants who successfully complete the ToT will also have access to a pool of funding that can support their first implementation of the program.
