Thanks Bart! No, unfortunately the guide is not available in English... I started translating it when I was requested to present in Prague, but instead I put together the Wikipedia Quick Start Guide as a handout due to the restricted time I had for the workshop... that's in English by the way:-)
I do intend to get back to translating the guide though (the latest, graphically rendered version is here ), just that I don't know when I'll manage to get round to it... (I have two kids, and actually it's time to pick up the little one from daycare right now!) Gotta run, greetings from ... frozen Greece! It's cold here today!

Thanks, User:Banaticus (Bart) On 10 January 2012 23:43, Mina Theofilatou <[email protected]> wrote: Hello, and Happy, creative New Year to all:) As promised in a message to this list in December, I have now completed my report on the presentation I delivered along with three students in Athens on December 17, 2011 titled "The Open Community in the School of Today". Here's a quick overview for those of you who don't have time to check out the links (believe me, I know how it goes!): Background: Our school is considered a "second opportunity" secondary school for adult learners in Kefalonia, Greece. We have been producing material for Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons since 2007. I have presented our work in Brussels (first prize in the Scientix poster competition) and Prague ("Wikipedia Startup Wizard" on Outreach). This was the first time I chose to have students co-presenting with me (also it was practically feasible, as this was our first Wikimedia presentation in Greece). Most important conclusion: having the students present their own work is very rewarding for them: apart from giving them the opportunity to speak in front of an audience in a respected establishment, it has spurred the interest of other teachers and students in our school, and hopefully the "chain reaction" will lead to a buzz in Wikimedia contributions:) Hope you find it useful!
