[Education] Wikipedia and Education: Wikimania in Haifa

[Lori Byrd Phillips]

I think it'd be great to have a Wikipedia and Education get together at
Wikimania, and I very much look forward to it!

While not indicative in the title, my proposal has educational leanings. I
kind of straddle the GLAM-Wiki and Campus Ambassador worlds at the moment,
having developed graduate level museum studies course units for editing
Wikipedia. Part of my proposal includes a museum program implemented earlier
this year that taught 33 middle and high school students to edit and
contribute to Wikipedia. I tend to get pretty pedagogical, so it may be of
interest to this group as well.

Thanks Frank & all,
