There is nothing like Cemca wiki module. We had just downloaded some help

 The VisualEditor is still experimental, but is being actively

 A good place for students to start would be the User Guide:

 Dear friends,

 I was almost away from the WikiEducator community for the last few
 months because of the new assignments in my work place. Now to
 compensate the absence partially, I decided to set aside one week to
 the WikiEducator community service from 23rd to 29th April. To make it
 effective, I would like to organize an online event ‘WikiBuddy
 certification guidance week’.

 There are a lot of community members who carry Apprentice 1  2
 certification on their user pages in accordance with the skills
 development and certification framework for WikiEducators. During the
 ‘WikiBuddy certification guidance week’ I would try my best to provide
 guidance to the community members who are looking forward to develop
 wiki skills required for WikiBuddy certification.

 WE community members who would like to participate may sign their
 names on the page for WikiBuddy certification guidance week at

 http://wikieducator.org/Training:WikiBuddy_certification_guidance_week_23.09.2012
 All communications in connection with this event will be through
 discussions on the user page/talk page of the registered participants.

 Warm welcome to all the WE community members who like to participate
 at/ facilitate the event! Please visit

 Dear Friends,

 The WikiEducator User Page Expo http://wikieducator.org/UPE (UPE to
 its friends) is an ongoing event recognising those WikiEducator user pages
 that are particularly informative, innovative, visually appealing, or
 otherwise just plain clever.

 We are very happy to announce that Vincent 
 Kizzahttp://wikieducator.org/User:Vkizzais the WikiEducator User Page Expo 
 winner for December 2011. Let's know
 more about him.

 Vincent Kizza http://wikieducator.org/User:Vkizza is a Senior teacher
 trainer for SESEMAT (Secondary Science and Mathematics) program, Ministry
 of Education and Sports, Uganda, East Africa. He became interested in Free
 and Open online educational content when he found that in Uganda the
 teachers and students are facing the challenge of lack of access to quality
 educational material, particularly in sciences. This soon became his
 passion and his journey continued in the field of OER where he worked on
 prestigious projects like 
 LugandaWikihttp://wikieducator.org/Vkizza/Buganda(a Page for Luganda 
 speakers especially in the diaspora to access Buganda
 culture resources); Uganda Schools OER portal 
 pagehttp://wikieducator.org/OERUG;
 Center for innovative physics teaching in 
 Ugandahttp://wikieducator.org/Ted/Project_Planning/Ugandato build secondary 
 school level physics content; Monitoring
 and evaluation course of environment programs in 
 schoolshttp://wikieducator.org/Vkizza/M_and_E_environment_course;
 and 
 AfroPhysicshttp://wikieducator.org/User:Vkizza/AfroPhysics/Content/Lesson_Plans.
 So motivated, he facilitated several face to face L4C workshops in his
 country http://wikieducator.org/Uganda and the online WikiEducator
 Gives Back eL4C41 
 workshophttp://wikieducator.org/Learning4Content/Workshops/eL4C41/Home.
 In addition to this, Vincent is an elected member of the WikiEducator
 Community 
 Councilhttp://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Community_Council/Members. He 
 also contributes as a freelance Database designer using open source
 tools. Reading science fiction and travelling are his interests.

 Please join us in congratulating the very talented and WikiArtisan, Vincent
 Kizza http://wikieducator.org/User:Vkizza!

 WE wish him all success towards his dream of contributing to science
 education in Uganda!!

 With best wishes

[WikiEducator] Problem with references

2011-12-01 Thread Savithri Singh
I am helping Mumbai University to create OER in WE. Am facing a few
problems:

1.  When we use the ref /ref  syntax it works on a normal page i.e.
on clicking the ref it connects to the references at the end of page BUT
when we use templates on the page, it doesn't.  See
http://wikieducator.org/Introduction_to_Cost_Concepts

2.  Am not able to access messages since the last week or so.

3.  While using templates on a page we seem to be able to edit using only
the EDIT button top of page - would like to break pages into smaller pieces
so that they can be edited ( we normally do this through titling
sections!!)  - how can this be done?

An early response would be useful!!  Thanks.

Savithri

 Hi everyone,

 The Obama administration's department of labour commitment to fund free
 learning materials is old news.

 However, what is interesting with the US Department of Labor's press
 release http://ht.ly/6F8EZ confirming the $500 million as the first
 installment of the $2 Billion 4-year investment in OER is the list of
 grantees by state and project description:

 http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/eta20111409fs.htm

 The resources developed under this investment, will add to the inventory of
 OER learning materials for reuse by the OER university network.

 The open OERu network model is not unlike knowledge -- it multiplies
 through consumption.  Similarly the more institutions who join the OER
 Tertiary Education Network (OERTen) who are implementing the OER university
 -- the more successful these organisations will become.

 We are on the verge of achieving the landmark milestone of *10* founding
 anchor partners for OER*Ten*.

 University will join the OER Tertiary Education Network (OERTen) and
 assist with the co-design and implementation of the international OERu
 initiative.

 The OERTen network will now be able to accredit OER learning in Africa,
 Asia, North America and Oceania.

 On joining the OERTen, BAOU  achieves a tripple accolade:

- The first founding anchor partner from 
 Indiahttp://wikieducator.org/India-- one of the worlds largest democracies.
- The fist Asian anchor partner to join this OER innovation
partnership.
- The *tenth* post-secondary accredited teaching institution to join
OER*Ten (*an informal strategic membership target we set ourselves for
the November meeting of anchor partners).

 The OER Foundation intimated that 2011 would be a quantum shift year for
 the mainstream adoption of OER in post-secondary education. I think we're on
 track to proving that the prediction may come true.

[WikiEducator] Guwahati University

2010-12-06 Thread Savithri Singh
Dear Friends,

This is just to inform that I was invited to Guwahati University University
along with a FOSS advocacy group and got an opportunity to present
Wikieducator as a platform for econtent.  it was well received specially by
the non-Computer Science teachers - I had invited Padmini Boruah for the
presentation.  padmini and I discussed the possibility of conducting an
hands-on workshop early next year with the Vice Chancellor.  Through this I
would also like to inform Padmini that later when we went to meet the VC, he
 specifically mentioned you and appreciated your initiative and assured me
that he will support any workshop planned.  So lets go ahead!! smile

I am also in touch with another University in Guwahati and I hope to atleast
be able to go and introduce the concept there when I go to GU and take it
further from there.

Savithri

Re: [WikiEducator] An Ethical Dilemma -- Feeling sad :-)- When publishers don't do what they say they intend to do

2010-10-04 Thread Savithri Singh
 that I release my work under a default CC-BY license.

 If there were any communications from the publisher in the interim about
 changing the license -- I missed these ;-(. Moreover, for the record, I
 would not have agreed to having anything I write published under an NC
 license.

 It's ironic that while the book carries a NC restriction -- the
 international public can purchase the texts, hard copy or ebook for a 
 listed
 price of $19.95 or $14,95 and see that currently some discount applies.

 Anway -- this is a public announcement that my forward is licensed under
 a CC-BY-SA license and my tweet - No 31 is openly licensed under a free
 cultural works approved license (CC-BY) in this case. The publisher was 
 free
 to add an NC restriction on the tweet - -but has omitted to attribute the
 source :-(.  For the record, both versions of the texts I submitted are
 licensed under a CC-BY license. You are free to take these texts, reuse
 them, adapt them, modify them and if you like sell them :-)

 Cheers

 She was passionate about Open Source for Education - and collaborated with
 a number of people in our WikiEducator community...

 I have been in touch with her family, and they have graciously provided
 some detail about her, her life and interests. A private funeral was held
 for immediate family on Thursday, August 19, 2010. A Mass in celebration of
 her life will be held in early September. For more details contact her son,

 On behalf or our WikiEducator community, I wish to say May her memory be

 On Mon, Aug 23, 2010 at 7:10 PM, Chris Babowal bab...@sbcglobal.netwrote:

 Randy,

 I know that she was very much into Open Source for Education and online
 testing. It was a dream of hers to one day have her oral/aural testing
 available to take online.

 Here is a short bio and a couple of pictures of her.

 Born January 14, 1950 in San Francisco, CA - Mary Christine Chris
 (Nason) Babowal, made her journey home to God on Tuesday, August 17, 2010 at
 her home in San Jose, CA. She leaves behind her husband Roger of 35 year,
 daughter Miche'al Christine Shelly (34), son Roger Michael II (32),
 daughter-in-law Crystal (28) and grandson Roger Michael III (10 and 1/2
 months).

 Chris was the founder, president and chairman of Babowal  Associates,
 Inc. Babowal  Associates, Inc. provided ARELS American English examinations
 and certificate programs, since 1992.

 Chris had been trained to develop listening and speaking tests using the
 ARELS methods by the University of Oxford Delegacy of Local Examinations, a
 department within the University of Oxford, England and ARELS, the
 Association of Recognized English Language Schools. The ARELS speaking and
 listening examinations were among the earliest creators (1962) of
 semi-direct listening and speaking test in the world. She ventured into the
 business English testing by developing a needs analysis process call
 Functional Language  Task Analysis based off of Jorie Phillippi Kennedy's
 Functional Task Analysis.

 Mrs. Babowal taught individuals from every educational level (preschool
 to post graduate) and provided training in corporate settings. She was made
 an esquire of the University of Oxford when she signed a partnership
 agreement with them in 1994. The Babowal  Associates, Inc. and University
 of Oxford partnership agreement was the first for-profit partnership of the
 University of Oxford in their 900-year history. She held a BS in Aeronautic
 Engineering and BA in Early Childhood Development and an MA in Secondary
 Education. She also had certificates in English as a Second Language (ESL)
 from San Jose State and held a California teacher's certificate and Adult
 Education Supervision and Coordination. She was certified by Jorie Phillippi
 Kennedy to provide Functional Task Analysis, FTA in 1989. By 1992, Mrs.
 Babowal had added language to the analysis and called it Functional Language
  Task Analysis. When working in the public school sector, she was
 responsible for the development of ESL parenting classes, several workplace
 and family literacy ESL programs that are still in use throughout the San
 Francisco Bay area.

 She was a dedicated wife, proud and loving mother and grandmother. Chris
 enjoyed spending time with her husband, daughter, son, daughter-in-law,
 grandson and dog. She had a passion for learning about other languages 
 cultures, reading, listening to books on tape, decorating, cooking, health,
 knitting and travel.

 A private funeral was held for immediate family on Thursday, August 19,
 2010. A Mass in celebration of her life will be held in early September. For
 more details contact her son, Michael Babowal at mbabo...@me.com.

 Letters of sympathy or flowers can be sent to:
 The Babowal Family
 2588 Pioneer Avenue
 San Jose, CA 95128

 You can also make a donation to your favorite charity in Chris' name.

  Emergency Management Agency, Red Cross and its affiliates plus dozens of
  other humanitarian aid organizations other than UN organizations. A
 noble
  project like WE can play a big role to bring those trainings to the
  communities even with limited resources because it is as important as
 being
  literate and self sustained. I have tried adding my name as Ambassador
  through the link provided but it did not work. *I think I now know why
 as I

  I should have posted the request here to the group for approval.
  Well this is what I can bring to the table and work proactively for
 making
  communities safer, prepared and self sustained.

 Hi Everyone,

 Wow -- overnight we achieved the 15,000 user threshold! Not bad for the
 summer / winter break depending on where you reside.

 On 1 July 2010, we celebrated our milestone of 14,500 users. Three weeks
 later WE celebrate reaching 15K. Well done WikiEducator!

 We speculated whether we would achieve 15,000 users by the end of this
 month  -- not too unreasonable given that we're hosting our record breaking
 WikiEducator Gives Back workshop (currently with 379 registered
 participants form 50 countries!). Nonetheless a great achievement -- 500 new
 accounts in 3 weeks.

 Shall we try another record?

 400 registered participants for the WikiEducator Gives Back workshop before
 the weekend? Perhaps we're pushing our luck? There is still time to enrol as
 we've only just started.

 Help spread the word  --- this is an amazing workshop demonstrating the
 power of community collaboration.

 See: http://wikieducator.org/Learning4Content/Workshops/eL4C41/About

 OER will change the world for the better! Just watch this space :-)

 Dear all,
 tgk in the Biology_Networkgroup sends us this report on Immune related
 molecules involved in plant fertilization. See below an excerpt. If any one
 needs full acccount with links please write to us.
 Arunan
 for
 Biology Network

 Today, more than a century after a German-Polish botanist first described
 the process of fertilization in flowering plants, scientists have identified
 an elusive molecular signal critical to that process.
 The finding sheds light on the evolution of plant fertilization mechanisms
 and could lead to strategies to overcome species-specific barriers for
 crossbreeding crops.


 When a pollen grain, which contains the male sperm, lands on another plant,
 it grows a pollen tube into the female reproductive tissues. Eventually, the
 pollen tube halts and bursts to release two sperm cells, one to fertilize
 the egg and another to fuse with a female cell and generate the endosperm, a
 tissue providing nutrition to the embryo. But little has been known about
 the cell-to-cell signaling between the male and female cells that causes the
 pollen tube to stop growing and rupture.

 Nine years ago, while looking for molecules that attract the pollen tube
 toward the female egg cells in maize, Thomas Dresselhaus and colleagues at
 the University of Regensburg in Germany stumbled across four defensin-like
 proteins expressed exclusively in the embryo sac. *It was a strange
 discovery, since defensin proteins are typically involved in the immune
 systems of plants, insects, and other animals.

 Hello WikiEducators,

 It is an honour to announce this months UPE, Jim Tittsler.

 Jim Tittsler is one of WikiEducators exemplary technical people. Jim,
 with a handful of other people, keeps the WikiEducator technology up
 and running. For the longest time I have been in awe of Jim's
 commitment to the care and feeding of WikiEducator. I believe his
 belief in this project goes beyond any professional commitment, the
 number of hours he has committed and his dedication to innovation and
 making WikiEducator meet the needs of the educators who use this
 platform is outstanding. Jim's knowledge of the technical platform
 which WikiEductor is built allows the contributors to focus upon
 building content, rather than wonder about the technology. With awe
 and great admiration I announce Jim Tittsler as the March UPE.

 Congratulations, Jim! And thanks for working so hard in the
 background.

 I've done some simple testing (both human and automated), and the key

 community that doubtlessly uses the site(s) in ways that I don't.  If
 you find something that appears broken, *please* let us know either
 by:
  - stopping by the web chat (see the left panel of the wiki or use a
 standard IRC client to visit irc.freenode.net and join the
 #wikieducator channel)
  - mailing the wikieducator-t...@googlegroups.com list
  - mailing me directly
  - registering on http://tech.wikieducator.net/ and creating a trouble
 ticket

 With all of the software updates and faster hardware, I think this is
 a good move for our community.  The most user visible feature is the
 addition of the optional rich text editor, but several other rough
 edges have been sanded down and we've added another bit of redundancy
 to our content backup scheme.

 Thanks everyone for your patience and help during the testing and move,

 Hi Everyone,

 Late last year Anil, Phil, Randy, John and others were exploring the idea
 of working with United Nations Volunteers (http://www.unv.org ) -- See
 earlier discussions on the list - http://tinyurl.com/ybcfwbv

 You may recall that we were concerned about the all rights reserved
 copyright provisions of the UNV site with reference to content our community
 would generate in listing our volunteer needs on the UNV site.  This
 practice did not align with our with our core community values associated
 with open content licensing.

 I agreed to contact Elise Bouvet, Online Volunteering Programme Specialist
 at UNV on behalf of the OER Foundation and the WikiEducator community for
 UNV to consider an exception in our case. Elise took the initiative to
 contact their legal department and WE are very pleased to confirm that UNV
 have agreed to an exception to license content we produce for the UNV site
 under our default CC-BY-SA license.

 I have uploaded a copy of the letter from UNV confirming this exception for
 our community:

 http://tinyurl.com/yzrtbcf

 I would like to commend the United Nations for listening and being prepared
 to consider our request. This is a testament to UNV's commitment to respond
 to the needs of the volunteer community they serve. If WE had a monthly 
 *Bouquet
 *Award, January's award would definitely go to UNV :-).

  -- perhaps we should think about instituting a community Bouquet Award
 where we can nominate people and organisations to recognise outstanding
 contributions of people and organisations who serve WE in a special way?
 Thoughts?

 I think WE should move forward in preparing a volunteers proposal for
 consideration by UNV. Randy has already set up a page for us to collaborate
 on drafting the proposal here:

Declan, I've always admired your Elementary Biology pages and have
suggested these pages exemplars to many educationists.  I've very glad that
you have more students joining you.  Welcome to the lovely world of sharing

All the best!

 Hi folks,

 Please join me in welcoming 40 new wikieducators.  They college students
 are registered for Biology in Elementary Schools and are currently
 establishing user accounts and completing parts of the tutorial before
 their course begins.  From there they will develop lessons to implement
 in the classrooms of our partner schools in Vermont (USA).

 Cheers,

 very active in the WE council, to add tremendous energy to high school

2009-11-16 Thread Savithri Singh
I am happy to share with you that our student Ruchika Pokhriyal of Bio
Medical Sciences will represent the Indian Youth at the COP 15 - The United
Nations Convention on Climate Change' in Copenhagen, Denmark from December 7
- 18, 2009. This is because she won the 'First Prize ' in the Senior Section
of the 'Prithvi Ratna National Essay Writing Competition for Youth on
Climate Change' conducted by the Ministry of Environment and Forests and the
WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature)-India.

We are indeed proud to share this information with you !

I am glad that motto   'beyond the classroom'   that we adopted for the
college  is bringing in dividends.

[WikiEducator] Re: WikiEducator visits Antarctica

2009-10-26 Thread Savithri Singh
Great !! It'll be real COOL to read a first-hand report about Trisha's stay
at Antartica.

Savithri

2009/10/27 Wayne Mackintosh mackintosh.wa...@gmail.com

 Hi Everyone,

 Trisha Korth (http://wikieducator.org/User:Tkorth), a primary school
 teacher from Warrington School has been granted a Primary Science Teacher
 Fellowship with the Royal Society. Trish has joined a team of marine
 ecologists from NIWA to study the coastal organisms living below the frozen
 sea ice of the Ross Sea in Antarctica., As we speak trish is connecting from
 Antarctica with students and WikiEducators around the world!

 Trish signed up for a Learning4Content workshop and has established an OER
 portal page to document her journey.  See:

 http://wikieducator.org/Antarctica

 Trish is connecting with students back home from Antarctica and is taking
 WikiEducator with her on this amazing discovery. For example, students from
 Waikouaiti School are asking:

- How did it feel landing on the 2m thick ice?
- What other types of animals have you seen?
- How did it feel going in the dinosaur?
- What did it feel like on the Dc17?
- Have you done a cart-wheel on the ice yet? (Which will make sense
when you visit Trish's portal page: http://wikieducator.org/Antarctica)
- Where there any baby emperor penguins?

 Trish is an inspiration showing us what a motivated teacher can do with OER
 and open source technologies. Trish is posting a video and photo log of her
 experiences on WikiEducator. WE look forward to the next installment (see:
 http://wikieducator.org/Trisha%27s_photos_and_video_clips) .

 Trish -- WikiEducator say's thank you for sharing your knowledge with the
 world!

 Cheers
 Wayne

[WikiEducator] Re: How do we support and respect educator contributions in WE?

2009-10-20 Thread Savithri Singh
://www.en.wikipedia.org/ or
 books in the case of Wikibooks http://www.en.wikibooks.org/ .

 Therefore we need to think creatively about how our community
 develops procedures to support the attainment of our individual and
 collective aims, while respecting the intent of the original creators. 
 For
 example:


- There are institutions which develop courses on WikiEducator
which are not intended for collaborative authoring due to local 
 curriculum
requirements.
- There are individuals who develop materials on WikiEducator
which they would like to make available for others to create 
 derivative
works, but would prefer not to have other educators edit their 
 materials.
- There are many projects in WikiEducator which are seeking wide
collaboration and contributions from the community.

 So the question is: How do we support and respect educator
 contributions in WE given the different intentions of our individual
 contributions?

 Valerie has alerted my attention to this important topic (see:
 http://wikieducator.org/Thread:Ownership,_status,_granularity_and_category_(3)http://wikieducator.org/Thread:Ownership,_status,_granularity_and_category_%283%29)
  -- Thanks Valerie. So what is the best way to signify intent and
 ownership of OER materials in WikiEducator. How do we communicate and
 respect a contributor's intention where they do not want collaborative
 authoring and participation on their OER resources? If an educator 
 finds a
 valuable resource they want to use and improve -- can they edit and 
 change
 the resource without creating problems for the original authors 
 resulting
 from their modifications?

 Clearly we need a mechanism to visually communicate the intent of the
 creator to prospective editors. We need a messaging system which says, 
 for
 instance:


- I need help and welcome WikiEducators to collaborate, edit and
improve this resource, or
- I have no problems if you copy this resource and modify for
your own purposes -- but will appreciate if you don't make changes 
 because
I'm using this in my course, or
- I don't mind editorial improvements but don't want editors to
make substantive changes to my OER --- suggestions and comments are 
 welcome
on the corresponding talk page.

 It seems to me that we need a template or content infobox which
 clearly communicates the intent of the original OER creator in terms of
 permissible contributions and/or restrictions with regard to community
 edits.

 Thoughts? Are there any other intents than those listed above?

 You gotta love the WikiEducator project -- we're figuring out
 solutions that work for education. We're pioneering the future that has
 already happened :-).

 Cheers
 Wayne

2009/10/20 Wayne Mackintosh mackintosh.wa...@gmail.com

 Hi Everyone,

 We've just received notification from Jim that he has installed a Hebrew
 localisation for WE :-)

 On behalf of OERF and the WikiEducator family I'd like to express our
 thanks and gratitude to Jim's tireless commitment and technical support.

 This is an important prototype for WikiEducator being our first language
 install for a right-to-left language.

 http://he.WikiEducator.org/ http://he.wikieducator.org/

 We're very fortunate to have a dedicated team in Israel under the trusted
 leadership of Nellie, one of our Community Council members who will guide us
 through this process.

 We should take a moment to reflect on the power of the open source software
 model. None of this would have been possible without the language
 localisations available using the best wiki software engine in the world --
 Mediawiki!

 Some extensions used by the WikiEducator installation may not be translated
 yet -- I hope that our WikiEducator colleagues in Israel will help in
 translating these extensions as our contribution back to the Mediawiki
 community.

 Gee -- you gotta love the open source software model.

 Cheers
 Wayne

Then I see no reason why we should hesitate to switch.  WE `are only

 Good qeustion Savithri

 The FCKeditor extension for Mediawiki converts the text into wiki syntax
 :-), which means that users can still continue editing in the conventional
 way.

 Cheers
 Wayne

 2009/9/27 Savithri Singh singh.savit...@gmail.com

 Dear Wayne,

 WYSIWYG will definitely be useful for people who are diffident of working
 with syntax - it will help more people to contribute to WE.

 Tell me something - if a page is created via WYSIWYG then later can we
 edit it our conventional way?  Then even embedding templates can ebe done.

 Allowing WYSIWYG is a great initiative.

 Hi Nellie,

 Thanks for the kind words :-) -- but it's not just me.

 We have a sterling team of volunteer techies with folk like Jim and
 Wen-Chen watching over smooth operations of our web sites and future
 technology deployments,  we also have a team of WikiEDTech advisers plus 
 the
 folk over at Athabasca University preparing for the migration of the
 servers. We have funders like the NZ Ministry of Education and Hewlett 
 who
 are helping us spread the reach of OER across the planet.  We shouldn't
 forget our committment to transparent and democractic governance models 
 with
 a team of 25 international open education professionals who volunteer 
 time
 ensuring the stewardship of good governance. Above all -- the thousands 
 of
 educators who spend hours working on OER in WikiEducator.

 That said --  the independance we now have with the OER Foundation
 (see: http://tinyurl.com/nnqg9e) gives us greater flexibility and
 agility than was possible working under an intergovernmental agency.  We
 still have lots of work to do -- but have a very solid foundation for
 scalable growth.

 Our next step is to figure out the best way to implement the embedding
 of third party media (like video, slideshows etc)  and this is high on 
 our
 list of priorities. The question of embedding third party media is not so
 much a technical barrier, but more a question of free content licensing 
 and
 open file formats.

 Increasingly, video hosting sites now provide functionality to tag
 user rights -- for example Creative Commons Licenses.  In an ideal 
 world, we
 would want the capabilities for WikiEducators to have access to editable
 versions of the video files in open file formats. We're certainly a lot
 closer to achieving this goal today than we were a year ago.

 Watch this spaces -- pretty soon we will be able to embedd video from
 third party sites in ways which align with our community values!

[WikiEducator] Teachers award from ANDC

2009-09-11 Thread Savithri Singh
Wikieducators  Sarita Kumar and Seema Makhija have been honoured by the
University of Delhi as 'Distinguished Teachers'  among Delhi University
College teachers on the occasion of Teachers day -

*In India 5th September is celebrated as Teachers' day. 5th September is the
birthday of a great teacher Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan. When Dr.
Radhakrishnan became the president of India in 1962, some of his students
and friends approached him and requested him to allow them to celebrate 5th
September, his birthday. In reply, Dr, Radhakrishnan said, instead of
celebrating my birthday separately, it would be my proud privilege if
September 5 is observed as Teachers' day. The request showed
Dr.Radhakrishnan's love for the teaching profession. From then onwards, the
day has been observed as Teachers' Day in India.
**
*Please see* http://hn.wikieducator.org/Acharya_Narendra_Dev_College *for
group pic as well as that of Sarita Kumar.  In the group pic can you spot
Sarita and Seema?? :)

For the first time ever University of Delhi (traditionally school teachers
have been awarded on this day each year) decided to honour undergraduate
teachers on the occasion.  90 teachers across 29 colleges (there are 63
colleges in DU - in some colleges nobody made the grade) and 13 subjects
were honoured.  The awards were based on student perception only - feed back
was taken on the undergraduate teachers from First year Post graduate
students.

I am proud that Acharya Narendra Dev College has three awardees - this is a
good number considering that ours is a relatively young college.

Of the three Sarita Kumar(User:Saritasanjay),  Seema Makhija (
User:Makhija.seema) are Wikieducators (M.S. Rajeswari is the third).

 There'll be a maintenance operation in our hosting facility on
 Wednesday September 15 from 00:00-06:00 CEST, which is expected to
 affect our server for only 15 minutes downtime, but may also cause
 some general network slowness in that time window.

 I'll be checking the site and the tech list for unexpected issues.

 exemplary member!

  To be honest, I've often wondered whether I'd make the grade, because my

  I've wondered if we might create an Honourable Mention category for

  I believe these types of honours / peer recognition are an important

 of
   the most deserving (and hard working) members of our community. He has
   a very comprehensive user page with considerable information about his
   skills, knowledge and abilities. In the last few months Randy has
   taken over as the most active WikiEducator in terms of wiki edits

 Hi Everyone,

 Good news for our community. The New Zealand Ministry of Education has
 signed off on a project to establish a national OER collaboration for New
 Zealand schools using WikiEducator.  The project aims to:


1. Build capability and support community development for NZ teachers
working on OER.
2. Make the wiki easier to use for all teachers for authoring,
searching, and reusing OER content.
3. Seed the development of OER exemplars mapped to the NZ curriculum.


 The New Zealand Ministry of Education has agreed to fund the first year of
 the project outlined in this proposal:


 http://wikieducator.org/Funding_proposals/Reusable_and_portable_content_for_New_Zealand_schools.


 I'd like to encourage all WikiEducator teachers to take a look at the
 proposal and see how we may be able to replicate national OER collaborations
 in your respective countries.

 All our planning documentation and resources will naturally be licensed
 under free content licenses, which you can reuse and adpat for your local
 context :-). Similarly all tools developed will be freely available for
 adoption and use by all WikiEducators.

 Well done WikiEducator --- another natioinal OER initiave for our
 community!

 Cheers
 Wayne

 (Note there are a few minor tweaks on the budget allocations which must
 still be updated in the wiki.)

[WikiEducator] Re: Another milestone -- you're making history!

2009-06-17 Thread Savithri Singh
Congratulation to all of you Organisers of the BIG online workshop and all
of us in WE.
Wayne, am so glad that I joined the WE in Aug, 2006 - seems so long ago but
really it has been one of the  'most exciting' phases of my life!!

2009/6/18 Gladys Gahona gladysgah...@gmail.com


 Thank you for the congratulation Wayne,

 Collaboration, enthusiasm, expertise and a professional attitude
 leaded by Nellie made it possible... we are ready for the new phase of
 Wikieducator!

 My best wishes to the WE family

  Hi everyone,
 
  As founder of the WikiEducator initiative --- just a quick note to say
 that
  you're helping our community achieve another major milestone! You're
  participating in the largest L4C online workshop in the history of WE,
 with
  280 people signing up for this workshop.  We're also on the verge of
 10,000
  registered users! Three years ago -- there was one registered user.
 
  I held the previous record of faciliting a workshop with 170 registered
  participants and I am pretty chuffed that Nellie, Gitta, Gladys,
 Benjamin,
  and Rima now hold the new record :-).  Well done
 
  What an amazing team of facilitators spread across the international time
  zones of Mexico, Israel, Yemen/Saudi Arabia and India -- literally 24/7
  support!  This is team work. More importantly each of our amazing
 facilitors
  are graduates of previous L4C workshops demonstrating the potential of
 our
  open wiki model to scale!
 
  This team of facilitators have taken L4C workshops to a new level! I'm
  amazed to see the innovations and improvements in using the wiki
 technology
  to support learning when compared to our rather conventional teaching
  approaches early in the project. From my desk a BIG thank you to the team
 in
  pioneering new wiki teaching approaches.
 
  I must concede that WikiEducator has been the most rewarding project of
 my
  professional career. My faith in education has been restored seeing so
 many
  educators from around the world committed to developing educational
  materials which we can share and reuse :-).  Its interesting -- I've yet
 to
  meet Nellie, Gitta, Benjamin,  Rima or Gitta face-to-face -- yet they are
  now close professional freinds --- along with so many WikiEducators
 around
  the world.
 
  WikiEducator has now embarked on a new phase of development to scale up
 our
  work beyond Commonwealth countries. I hope that you'll help us in
 spreading
  the word among colleagues and friends to join us in turning the promise
 of
  OER into today's reality.
 
  Welcome to the WikiEducator family!
 
  Cheers
  Wayne

[WikiEducator] Talk on WE

2009-06-16 Thread Savithri Singh
Dear All,
I could not join you on the discussion on OER since I was invited to
'Edutech Expo' - an event by the magazine 'Electronics for You'.  I was
asked to deliver a talk on WE - and I chose to speak on Wikieducator =
Access to Education' - using mainly a rehash of the earlier slides.  But it
was fun making this presentation to the world of industry, where they only
believe in buying-selling, profits and loss!!!

The talk was well appreciated, and almost immediately I was invited to
address a 500-strength of school teachers in October in Bhubhaneshwar!!

Congratulations and is it not great that Wikieducator showed the way?!!!
Savithri

2009/5/25 Wayne Mackintosh mackintosh.wa...@gmail.com

 Hi Chris,

 CC-BY-SA was the right decision for the time --- we had the advantage of
 starting WE a little later than Wikipedia.  We also support the CC-BY
 license in respect for freedom of choice under licenses which meet the
 requirements of the free cultural works definition.

 We should also pay due respect to the Free Software Foundation who in the
 spirit of the free culture movement supported a change in the GFDL which
 made this migration possible.

 (Refer to the Relicensing section under the GFDL (
 http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html ) -- this is not a blanket provision
 and any qualifiying Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site (MMC) wishing to
 relicense under a CC-BY-SA license would need to do so before 1 August
 2009.)

 Cheers
 Wayne



 2009/5/25 Chris Harvey gnuch...@gmail.com


 Congratulations to all of you.

 Looks like Wikieducator made a good decision with cc-by-sa

  Hi Everyone,
 
  I've been meaning to post a word of congratulations to the WikiMedia
  Foundation on our list, who recently announced exiting changes to their
  licensing policy.
 
  Following a positive community vote, the WikiMedia Foundation have
 passed a
  resolution to relicense the content of their community projects
 including
  Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikiversity etc under a Creative Commons
 Sharealike
  License (CC-BY-SA).  This is a great opportunity to widen collaboration
  within  the freedom culture in sharing and reusing content.
 
  Once the new licensing is implemented -- this now makes it legally
 possible
  to develop derivative works from WikiMedia Foundation projects in
 support of
  the development of OER for different teaching contexts.  Similarly,
 content
  developed by our community can potentially add value to WikiMedia
 Foundation
  projects. This is a significant step in helping achieve the vision of
 free
  content resources in support of all national curricula in the world.
  Through collaboration we can achieve so much more than working alone.
 
  A great day for the the freedom culture. You can read the full press
 release

Open Source Textbooks For
Californiahttp://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/9i14vNmCUD8/article.pl
via Slashdot http://slashdot.org/ by kdawson on 5/10/09

T-1000, appropriately enough, lets us know about a California initiative to
compile open source science and math textbooks for the state, in the hopes
of saving money. The effort is spearheaded by Gov. Schwarzenegger. The
effort seems very promising, but the state's complex standards and arduous
textbook evaluation process will pose major challenges. ... The governator
will surely be able to stop the digital textbooks from gaining sentience and
subjugating humanity, but there are trickier challenges that will be even
tougher to defeat than the impending Skynet apocalypse. Textbooks are a
surprisingly controversial issue in California and there is a lot of
political baggage and bureaucratic red tape that will make an open source
textbook plan especially troublesome. ... [T]he traditional wiki approach is
untenable for California teaching material. Individual changes to textbooks
can become a source of fierce debate and there are a multitude of special
interest groups battling over what the textbooks should say and how they
should say it. It would take the concept of Wikipedia edit wars to a whole
new level.

 Hi all,
 This is indeed an honor!  You are all too kind.  I have to give credit
 to: about 90 highly motivated young educators for developing content;
 more than a dozen teachers in our partner schools for providing
 learning objectives and then hosting our 'six-ring-circus' science
 program or visiting our college; an ever growing number of WEducators
 for patience in teaching me to use WE; and to the many community
 members from whom I regularly borrow bits of code to make things run
 smoothly.

 I thank you all!  And I thank you again for honoring our project in
 this way!  It's particularlly gratifying to be listed among such
 excellent company on the UPE site!

[WikiEducator] Re: Keep the architecture open for bells and whistles

2009-04-22 Thread Savithri Singh
 to a younger reader.

 When the new page appears, Mr. Squire sees at the top of the screen
 that the text is written at a 15th grade level.  He sees words like
 'pelisse' and 'idiomatically' are highlighted, as well as very long
 sentences. Mr. Squire sees that he can turn these highlights off and
 on, so that he can focus on one or the other, or both at once.

 Mr. Squire clicks the edit button and begins to cut down the length of
 the article.  He determines there are many his class does not need to
 know.  He leaves only the highlights of Mozart's career.  By the time
 he is done, the 12 page article is now only a page and a half.

 He then begins to tackle the 'hard words'.  Each highlighted word has
 a pull down menu that gives suggestions based on a thesaurus and the
 reading level Mr. Squire has chosen.  If none of the suggestions match
 the meaning, Mr. Squire replaces it manually.

 Finally, Mr. Squire goes through and changes the length of the longer
 sentences that are highlighted.  He breaks up sentences into smaller
 chunks

 As he has worked, Mr. Squire notices that the reading level has been
 dropping.  By the time he has replaced the harder words, and shortened
 the sentences, the reading level is at a 6th grade level.  He clicks
 the save button, and a new Wikipedia page has been created.  When Mr.
 Squire's students go to Wikipedia, they click on the Motzart page,
 click the 'simpler version' button, and choose the newly created '6th
 grade' version.

 *Example 2 *
 Mrs. Bell teaches 12th grade history at her high school.  She wants
 her students to learn about Georg Forster.  She checks out the
 Wikipedia entry and sees that it is over 20 pages in length.  The text
 seems too complex for her students, but she has also heard that there
 is the ability to make an easier version of a Wikipedia article.  She
 decides to let her students participate in the exercise.

 She schedules time in their computer lab and during the next class
 period the students get to work.  She pulls up the article on the
 projector, clicks on the 'simpler version' button, chooses 12th grade
 version. When the new article appears there are sentences and words
 that are highlighted. The text reads at a 15th grade reading level.

 The class begins to browse through the article.  The goal is to get
 the article down to 8 pages.  There is discussion about what should
 stay and go.  Students take some sections completely out, shortening
 other sections, and leave some sections as they stand.  By the end of
 the class period, the text is 8 pages.

 Mrs. Bell divides up the rest of the article and assigns homework to
 the students. That night, the students go into their section of the
 article, and replace the difficult words. A pull down menu gives them
 suggestions, but in some cases they must turn to a dictionary to
 ensure they keep the meaning of the text.  In addition, they take the
 longer sentences and break them up, as needed.  The goal is for the
 text to mean the same thing, but to be more accessible to a person who
 reads at a 12th grade level.

 The next day in class Mrs. Bell opens the text and they see that the
 text is now at a 12th grade reading level.  Their class, as well as
 other classes around the country and throughout the world, can now
 benefit from this easier version.

2009-04-04 Thread Savithri Singh

 Spread the word at your organisations, post invitations on  your
 discussion lists and your blogs. Let's show the world how we can exceed our
 targets.

 A BIG thank you to the WikiEducator community and all the amazing L4C
 facilitators around the world who have turned this dream into reality. When
 we started L4C, there were only 3 facilitators. Our list of L4C facilitators
 is now nearing 30 with many L4C graduates becoming trainers in their own
 right. You've got to love the scalability of the open model :-).

 I'm working on a funding proposal to continue with work with L4C capacity
 building around the world.  I'm also seeking to secure funding to assist
 with the development and implementation of an L4C Intermediate level course.
 Given the overwhelming success of L4C -- I'm confident that we will find
 additional funding to widen access to capacity building in OER using the
 wiki model. Watch this space :-).

 Cheers
 Wayne

[WikiEducator] WE at freed.in

2009-02-21 Thread Savithri Singh
Freed.in was a conference for and by the India Linux Users Group - ILUG .
It usually has only techno-geeks talking about FOSS.  This time we decided
to intrude and enable FOSS and OER on the same plaform, particularly due to
the parallel philosophy  - the essential freedoms, Creative Commons, use of
FOSS etc.. There were three presentations based on WE - one by me, the other
by Gita and Promilla and the third by the English Honours Group at Deen
Dayal Upadhyaya College.  = a few eyebrows were raised, but on the whole the
audience realised there was sense in such integration.  In effect we brought
about a radical change - the  FOSS community were forced to started thinking
about on what FOSS can achieve in areas beyond software!!  I am thankful to
Niyam Bhushan, a FOSS evangelist ( who has been coming in to WE workshops
for talks on FOSS, and CC) who coerced us to participate.

AND college also had a presentation in FOSS - students had also fun
volunteering for the event!!! :)

see *freed.in* for more details.

Glad to see you are back.  Hope you have settled in.  And get over your
withdrawal symptoms smile by going thru all that you have missed on WE.

  Hi Phil,

 With apology --- I'm the unnamed party/benefactor who set up these pages as
 an example for further refinement. I'm not an expert in your discipline and
 sorry about the transgressions in the title of the page :-).

 Gee --- I love wiki communities! I see Gladys has already jumped in and
 helped with refinements. Sorry I could not have helped sooner. I've just
 relocated back home to NZ from Canada with my family and its taken a few
 days to get my internet connectivity sorted.  Fortunately we're using a wiki
 and its pretty easy to make the changes.

 The good news is that I'm back online and can't wait to get back into
 community discussions and activity -- its been tough these last few weeks
 dealing with WE withdrawal symptoms :-).

 Cheers
 Wayne

 Hi, everyone. Thanks for your kind words, yesterday. This is my first
 posting so I hope it works

 I am constructing a course on community empowerment (CE).

 Some nice person, who did not identify herself or himself, added a
 Table of Contents.
 See: 
 http://www.wikieducator.org/Introduction_to_Community_Empowerment/Community_needs

 The course has two parts. Part A looks at the process of Community
 Empowerment from the perspective of the community. I called it: What
 the Community Needs to Do.
 It complements the second half. Part B describes what the mobilizer needs to 
 do.

 My unnamed benefactor titled the first part as Community Needs, and
 that gives the wrong impression. It is not what the community needs;
 it is what the community needs to do, or the CE process from the
 community perspective.

 How do I go about editing that?

[WikiEducator] Re: Wiki Visualization Tool (CC-BY-SA); can we use or adapt this?

2009-01-15 Thread Savithri Singh
Its exciting!!

Savithri

2009/1/16 Randy Fisher wikira...@gmail.com


 Hi All,

 I just found a reference to DebateGraph on the BBC News site:
 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7827112.stm

 A visit to the DebateGraph site -- http://debategraph.org/

 n pursuit of this goal, Debategraph is:

 (1) A wiki debate visualization tool that lets you:

* present the strongest case on any debate that matters to you;
* openly engage the opposing arguments;
* create and reshape debates, make new points, rate and filter the
 arguments;
* monitor the evolution of debates via RSS feeds; and,
* share and reuse the debates on and offline;

 (2) A web-based, creative commons project to increase the transparency
 and rigor of public debate everywhere—by making the collective insight
 and intelligence of the global community freely available to all and
 filtering out the noise.

* Every debate map is provisional and open to iterative
 improvement by anyone who participates.
* Over time, the debate maps will mature into the definitive
 articulations of each debate.
* Every change you make—whether correcting a text, adding a new
 argument, or starting a new debate—contributes towards the fulfilment
 of this social promise.
* So be bold as a first time visitor—and safe in the knowledge
 that a full editing history provides a safety net.

 (3) A global graph of all the debates that enables us to visualise and
 deepen our understanding of the ways in which different debates are
 semantically interrelated, and ways in which these interrelated
 debates shape, and are shaped by, each other.


 My Question: Could we make use of this visualization software somehow?
 Could educators integrate this into some of their learning activities?

 - Randy

[WikiEducator] WE promotion in India

2009-01-15 Thread Savithri Singh
Hi All,

I am forwarding a mail I recieved from the organisers of freed.in - a
conference of FOSS enthusiasts in the country.

Pl alsdo see this: *
*http://freed.in/2009/buzz/the-buzz-across-northern-plains-of-india.html*
*
I had also attended a meeting of 'Knowledge Commons' where I had talked
about the WE - it is surprising that the FOSS community in India is not
aware of WE - anyways I have taken it upon myself to meet and talk about WE
at every opportunity I get within the FOSS community and the academia (even
if they are not exposed to FOSS).  So I am basically a WE evangelist !!!
smile

Cheers,

Savithri

dear dr. savithri singh,

congratulations on the successful launch of wikieducator.org/india
and thank you for inviting me to its event yesterday.

it is also heartening to note how your college is passionately adopting and
promoting
linux and foss across its campus and fraternity. i was quite impressed to
learn
about the grid-computing initiatives explored by dr. sanjay chugh (is that
his correct name, please?) from the physics dept.

it is therefore my privilege and pleasure on behalf of freed.in to invite
you and your college
to participate and to share at our community event:
freed.in 2009.
more details at http:freed.in.

dr savithri, i'd also like to invite you to please consider submitting a
talk on widieducator
and to use the opportunity to inspire and motivate the community to adopt
and contribute
to wikieducator.
it would also be wonderful to have dr. sanjay share his enthusiasm for grid
computing
and foss-adooption in indian academia at the event through a submitted talk.

you may find the CallforPapers here:
http://wiki.linux-delhi.org/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Freed2009/CallforPapers

finally, we would be very happy to have students from your college
volunteering to support and help us with the actual event,
apart from attending and spreading the word.

could you also please share and promote freed.in with others
in your circle, especially some of the people whom we met
at the event yesterday and at the workshops at your college last month?

i'd like to invite dr. geetha mathur, as well as the professors
from other colleges at DU whom we met at your workshop.
i don't have their email ids. could you please share them?

thanks, and look forward to your response.

regards
niyam

[WikiEducator] Re: WikiEducator 3.0 -- Building our future together

2008-09-29 Thread Savithri Singh
Hi,

I'm busy making the final prep for two F2F wikied trainings.  Then i go off
on a two weeks holiday back to work and catching up. Will be able to
really get into wikieducator issues only early November. Sorry for this
but  smile
Savithri

2008/9/30 Wayne [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Hi Everyone,

 At last I'm back in the office again and will be in Vancouver for the next
 three weeks before my next international mission.

 The phenomenal success of WikiEducator is attributed to hundreds of
 educators from around the world who wake up in the morning thinking: What
 can I do for WikiEducator today?  This is the foundation for our current and
 future success.

 I'm sure that there must be hundreds of questions pertaining to our
 unfolding futures (that is WikiEducator 3.0 smile) and I will do my best
 to answer all these questions.  I know that I won't have all the answers  --
 but working together we'll find the answers to most of our questions.

 In our  networked society  -- they say that its far better to have the
 right questions (without necessarily having all the answers), than having
 the right answers to the wrong questions.

 Key thoughts about WikiEducator 3.0

 * WE is a community project and will always be a community project run by
 the community for the community;
 * WE needs a non-profit entity to take is to the next level of success --
 we have outgrown our home at COL;
 * The success of the community is the prime reason we can move forward
 independently.

 This is an open invitation to all WIkiEducators for any questions you may
 have about WikiEducator 3.0,  but more importantly providing us with
 well-founded advice on our next steps.

 Look forward to an interesting conversation :-)

 Cheers
 Wayne

 Now that this process is complete, however, we have a lot of work to
 do.  It strikes me that the first order of business is to decide on
 what forum we as a Council will use for discussion.

 There is a separate Google group that was set up for the Interim Int'l
 Advisory Committee.  With that precedent set, we could set up a new
 Google group where Council members are signed up.  This Google group
 should be publicly accessible, as befits a Council that represents a
 wider community.

 Unless someone offers an alternative suggestion for a forum, I will
 set this up in two days' time so that we can move on to appointing the
 remaining ten members of the Council.

Congratulations to Dr Ramkrishnan on starting an India  culture page to
bring out our rich heritage.
http://wikieducator.org/India/Living_Heritage_:_Indian_Calendar

While developing the culture page I think it is important that we project
our country as the best example in the world of a Secular Nation. We are
indeed very proud of our culture that allows people from so many different
religions, backgrounds, cultures to co-exist since time immemorial. He has
indeed started a very interesting page and I hope it will reflect the India
that we as a collective dream of.  I hope all of us together can be proud of
our rich inheritance and it will reflect on the page.  Many many more people
need to contribute to make it a great success.

[WikiEducator] Re: Election Reminders

2008-08-20 Thread Savithri Singh
Dear All,

Exactly.  We need an elected Council such that these decisions can be made
in a democratic manner. Till now we were functioning in a 'situational - as
the need arose' manner - we needed a Board of some sort - so an Interim
Advisory Board was created; some people had to have admin rights so some
people were given these, and so onand Wayne was taking most of the
decisions. Of course, WE have been doing well even while functioning this
way smile yet now that we have so many WEducators and so many opinion
makers and opinion seekers it is essential that we structure ourselves to
function better.

Obviously once the council is formed members, within the Council different
people will have to identify different primary responsibilities.  As WE
grows there are going to be several more issues to discuss and resolve - a
democratically elected body could ensure democracy in functioning further
too.

Lets hope we do a good job of electing good people!!

2008/8/20 Minhaaj ur Rehman [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 very important thread i must say. I would add one thing to what steve
 said. I believe newly elected council should be given their specific
 email addresses for example [EMAIL PROTECTED] This would
 really create a sense of belonging and pride that we all should have
 as WEs. I am all for steve's idea about WE should be totally community
 driven with periodic online meetings and face2face meeting once in a
 while. I believe election is just an initial phase of what i see as a
 revolutionary change in WE. I have been talking to a lot o WEs and
 election candidates and everyone is full of ideas just waiting to be
 heard and discussed :)

  That's a great question.
 
  If WE is truly to be community governed, then assigning
  responsibilities like administrative permissions needs to come from
  the Council.  I foresee that once the Council is in place, that
  through resolution they can appoint people or rescind administrative
  permissions or any other responsibilities.
 
  There should also be a WikiEducator:People page that has a list of
  those with administrative permissions and other responsibilities so
  that the community knows who to contact for help with specific
  issues.  (Perhaps there's already such a list elsewhere and I'm just

[WikiEducator] Re: 4,000+ users; congratulationsonanothermilestone

2008-06-09 Thread Savithri Singh
 that have recorded
 more
   than 10 edits since they joined the project.  180 WikiEducators have
 been
   responsible for 83% of the total edits in Wikieducator.  (At this is
 more
   than the 40 based on the 1% rule).   That's about a third of the more
 active
   users (i.e. the 573 above.)  These numbers are much higher than I
 expected
   -- well done WikiEducator!
 
   How does WikiEducator's productivity compare with other wiki
 communities?
   Looking at statistics for the English Wikiversity as of Feb 2008 (
  http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikiversity/EN/Sitemap.htm) this is how the
   figures stack up:
 
  - Number of contributors with more than 10 edits:  653 (Wikiversity
 or
  WV) and 505 (WikiEducator or WE)
  - Number of active contributors  (ie. number of people who
 submitted
  more than 5 edits in Feb 2008): 74 (WV) 148 (WE)
  - Number of edits for Feb 2008:  3.4K (WV) 9.3K (WE) -- However, Feb
  was an unusually high month -- our average monthly edits are about
 5.2K
  - Mean number of edits per article: 13.4 (WV) and 20.4 (WE)
 
   I must stress that we are not competing with Wikiversity, on the
 contrary,
   I see our projects as complementing each other as unique contributions
 to
   the free knowledge community.  Given the differences between the nature
 of
   our respective communities, we may be comparing apples with oranges.
 
   However our small, but growing project can stand proud in that our
   productivity rates compare very favourably with the big wiki projects.
   Congratulations to all WikiEducators and institutions who are
 demonstrating
   that we can collaborate and develop learning materials the wiki way.
 
   Take a look at the figures and see if you're a top 50 Wikieducator!
 
   Have fun -- bearing in mind that we haven't validated the figures yet -

[WikiEducator] Re: Wikieducator (and mediawiki): Low bandwidth access

2008-06-05 Thread Savithri Singh
*Slow network has been one of my problems right from the beginning and
things have not improved much. I had raised a question about it a long time
back  - whether would be possible to work in an 'off line' mode with
automatic upload when connectivity is good (Erik may remember this!).

I am glad that this issue has been raised again by Bjoern - I concurr with
his para:*

A second (more involved) area of interest is 'wiki replication',  i.e.
to create a fully functional replicas (say of Wikieducator) within
local area networks. This would be a full copy of Wikieducator, that
can be read and edited on the local area network (of a university in
the south), i.e. without international bandwidth constraints. The
various 'replica' then synchronise themselves as and when permitted by
the international connection. Of course the goal would be a fully
functional copy, that allows both read/write and resolution of
conflicts etc.
*
I hope some resolution to this problem is found soon - it is real smile*

 2008/6/5 Bjoern [EMAIL PROTECTED]:


 Dear all,

 first post to the list - hello to you all.

 This is a post partially in reply to Wayne Mactintosh's presentation
 http://www.wikieducator.org/Wayne_Mackintosh
 's_Presentation#.283:25.29_The_Big_Issue_for_Africa_.E2.80.93_How_do_you_get_Access.3F
 regarding access for Africa, and your comments on Are all Open
 Educational Resources Equally Free?.

 The issues raised are very important, and I would like to make some
 practical suggestions. In my view, issues like web disability access
 are quite well understood, with relevant standards etc. However, low
 bandwidth access really hasn't come into the mainstream yet, and
 remains poorly understood.

 A good example for guidelines and recommendations are Aptivate's low
 bandwidth web-design guidelines, which are available here:
 http://www.aptivate.org/webguidelines/Home.html

 If you look at the top ten tips, you'll see that a maximum page size
 of 25kB is recommended. Wikieducator is currently about 150KB, and
 would take about one minute to load for typical user in a developing
 world university.

 Quite a bit of this is due to the css and javascript of the MonoBook
 skin (which is used by most mediawikis). So there's a real opportunity
 here to have an impact by optimising the MonoBook skin. Perhaps even
 modifying the mediawiki code, so that the javascript is only loaded
 when needed.

 Unfortunately I don't have resources available to just get on with
 this, but perhaps this could somehow be addressed in a community way?

 A second (more involved) area of interest is 'wiki replication',  i.e.
 to create a fully functional replicas (say of Wikieducator) within
 local area networks. This would be a full copy of Wikieducator, that
 can be read and edited on the local area network (of a university in
 the south), i.e. without international bandwidth constraints. The
 various 'replica' then synchronise themselves as and when permitted by
 the international connection. Of course the goal would be a fully
 functional copy, that allows both read/write and resolution of
 conflicts etc.

 This is of course not a new idea, and it's also a complicated problem.
 However, it is very relevant for low-bandwidth access, and perhaps one
 could come up with some initial pragmatic solutions, that have less
 than the full functionality. For instance, one could replicate the
 content 'read-only', while 'edits' still take place on the main wiki,
 but in a bandwidth optimised way (perhaps also with traffic shaping,
 so that bandwidth is available for this). This could give many
 institutions instant access to Wikieducator and Wikipedia. (In fact,
 Wikipedia of course has a distributed system of servers.)

 Of course one would start with a pilot project, to see whether those
 ideas really address some of the issues at hand. But if it works, it
 won't just make Northern content more accessible, but it could really
 make Southern content more visible, and also enable South-South
 content sharing much more viable.

 I wonder whether there is critical mass to build a consortium around
 some of those ideas, and to see what's needed to make this happen.

 Looking forward to your feedback!
 Bjoern

 I think there's a need for two types of conferencing

 1. Smaller scheduled sessions where key folk from our community talk
 about what they're doing and
 2. A BIG WikiEd Moot conference. I have a Moodle server running for WE,
 which we could use for structuring our first global conference. This will
 need a little planning and volunteers from around the world -- but given
 enough time I'm sure that we can have an exciting event.

 Thanks again for the offer -- I'm sure that the community will take you
 up on the gesture.
 What do you have in mind?

 Cheers
 Wayne

 Hi Peter,

 Couldn't agree more -- WE should definitely run an inaugural
 conference online.

 A few of the WE community builders have started up a page and are
 brainstorming ideas:

 Yeah -- I think our community is big enough to put together a valuable
 conference experience from all corners of the Commonwealth and further
 afield.

 Lets fix a tentative date sometime in the future and starting working
 towards the event. I'll invite Sir John to keynote!

 Cheers
 Wayne

  Exciting times.
 

 Congrats Wayne and thanks for starting this important project. With
 Learning4Content taking off, things are _really_ getting exciting, and
 I hope I can get the ball rolling on our next stage hosting solution
 soon.

 By the way, the WikiEducator Google Group now has more than 200
 members as well, which makes it one of the largest forums dedicated to
 free education. :-)

 OK .. I'll try to set things up so we can start delegating access to the
 server.

 Wayne, could you send me an initial list of folks who can be given
 access, and distinguish between
 * folks who are extremely technically versatile and can be trusted
 with super-user (root) access;
 * folks who should be able to run routine updates, given proper
 documentation.

 I'll be in touch separately regarding the contract details for the
 hosting.

 If we're lucky we won't run into any disastrous downtime before we've
 set up the more reliable phase 2 hosting *knock on wood* :-). We do
 have daily remote backups, but if the current server dies, it would
 take us at least a few days to get back up -- hence focusing energy
 first on higher availability, before thinking about things like
 sandbox wikis, would make sense to me.
