Wikimedia Australia and Schools
Wikimedia Australia is interested in liaising with schools to share a variety of information including;
- What is Wikipedia - An introduction to the priniciples and mechanics involved in Wikipedia work, and wikis in general.
- Best Practice for students - ways to encourage valuable interactions with wikis, including applications within teaching and learning.
- Guidance and support for educators - specific ideas and support for existing projects - we're all ears!
We are beginning formalising our efforts in this area in June 2009 (it's the 20th as I write this!) - if you are interested in getting involved in work in this area, please do send us an email on contact
wikimedia.org.au - we'd love to hear from you :-)
