I would love to hear more about your next project Ole, and what structure you may find most useful then. It does though, and from experience here in Sweden, sound like a structure with some ideas about what students may contribute to makes it easier to get started and to focus on contributing rather than choosing. But this may of course vary.
How did the pupils learn Wikipedia? Through you? Or the teachers? Did they interact with the community? If yes, how did that go? Sorry to burst out all these questions but it's so great to hear about how different countries are furthering their education programmes. *Be Bold!
