Update: Publication of this week's Signpost issue was just postponed by three days, meaning there is still time until Thursday for contributing a writeup on any of these research publications about Wikipedia in education.
Also, I have added three more recent papers to the list to be included in this issue (https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/WRN201701 ). Including an interesting-looking case study where 95% of the students participating in a classroom editing project described their interactions with other editors as a positive experience - even when they got reverted or otherwise had their contributions flagged for quality problems.
