Hi,
I have just visited several Wikiversities in preparation of my presentation of this project on Wikimania:
http://wikimania2011.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/From_the_Wikiversity_content_to_its_conflicts
I red recent core discussions on cs, en, es, it, pt and ru and I am wondering how different approaches in fullfilling our missions are. Now it realy seems to me that Wikiversity is in fact researching e-learning in MediaWiki software. And because of the different approaches and different understandigs there might be multiple results.
Let me give you here a teaser:
*pt, ru and es are based on brick and mortar school units (i.e. elementary schools, departments, institutes and so on)
**from a realy interesting discussion on pt, I have find out that it for people who will come up to these units in the future and who create educationa materials arround themseves
http://pt.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversidade:Esplanada#Perfil_da_Wikiversidade
*en and cs was open to deploy all of what contributers deployed. Nothing was deleted and sometimes this was causing problems not just within the Wikimedia community, but also at cs.wv. These languages are trying to sort this content recently, trying to put an order in to chaos, by type: http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Help:Resources_by_type
*recently on cs and ru, its some users were trying to have just live educational courses. The other stuff to mute or delete.
And others different approaches. So do not forget guys, there are also other Wikiversities, which are not copying en.wv
Regards,
Juan
