[Wikimedia-l] Re: 📚 Back for a third round! Apply to join the Training of Trainers for Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians and friends,

*We have an important announcement! *
We have extended the deadline for the Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom
Training of Trainers for underrepresented regions.

One of our goals for each cohort of the Reading Wikipedia ToT is to form a
diverse cohort where people representing different regions, countries,
languages, and education systems can learn from each other and share with
one another. We've received an overwhelming response to our call for
applications, but there are some regions that are underrepresented. We want
to extend the deadline to ensure we have a cohort representative of the
world.

If you are from Latin America, MENA, East Asia and the Pacific (ESEAP), or
South Asia, you still have until *September 9, 2022*, to apply:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeBt_tKvgQ5WbHa5TyOA-aROEC76jeID_kmKG35_ZYEpK1l7g/viewform
This survey will be conducted via a third-party service, which may subject
it to additional terms. For more information on privacy and data handling,
see the survey privacy statement
<https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_Classroom_-_Training_of_Trainers_Application_Cohort_3>
.

Are you curious about how to get started? We have all the details and
recording of the latest information session on Meta:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_Classroom/ToT#Opportunities

Please help us share this opportunity in your circle.

Best!
Sailesh

Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom
<https://wikimediafoundation.org/our-work/education/reading-wikipedia-in-the-classroom/>
[2] is a professional development program for teachers that guides them to
approach Wikipedia through UNESCO’s Media and Information Literacy

[5] and Guinea <https://youtu.be/ENoQjc4IG5g> [6], to name a few countries

The Training of Trainers program is a 9-week online learning experience
that prepares participants to implement the Reading Wikipedia in the

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear friends,

Time flies so quickly! Only a few days left for EduWiki Week[1]. Join us

celebrate our community members, our work, and foster new connections. Join
us for this celebration from 21st-25th February. Checkout the agenda now![2]

*What are we bringing to you next week*?

The answer is a lot! Take part in our daily trivia on social media
channels, Facebook[3], and Twitter[4]. We will use the hashtag
#EduWikiWeek2022 throughout the week.

Each day we want to celebrate a new highlight of the work of the EduWiki
community:
- the programs that you have built in the past 20-years to engage teachers
and students by providing learning opportunities through Wikimedia projects.
- the effort you and your community members have put to make successful
programs and your learnings.
- And some fun, what are some of the famous carnivals or festivals in your
region. Let us know!
- the resources that you have created in all these years.
- We also want to improve our engagement, so tell us "how to" at the end of
the event.
Please help us to highlight these stories by taking part on social media.

Register today to attend the *Community showcase and connection session*,
join us on the 23rd for 13:00 - 16:00 UTC to listen to 9 community stories
followed by a social hour.  You can also watch it live on Youtube[5].

You can organize asynchronous/local activities throughout the week. Find
some of the activities here or add your activity to the section[6].

[Wikimedia-l] Join us for EduWiki Live, take a deep dive into Wikidata and Curriculum Digitization

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians and Friends,


TL;DR: The first EduWiki Live will be on Tuesday, November 30, at 15:00 UTC

Theme: *Wikidata and Curriculum Digitization*

Livestream:

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WikimediaEducationTeam

Youtube (link will be shared soon)

I hope this email finds you well. Last month, we introduced you to our
new EduWiki
community support strategy
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2021/10/05/promoting-more-inclusive-and-equitable-support-for-the-wikimedia-education-community/>.
As a part of our new strategy, we are here with the first “EduWiki Live
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/EduWiki_Live>” event, scheduled
for 30th November at 15:00 UTC.  EduWiki Live is a virtual event that aims
to serve as a bridge between the EduWiki community and the Education
sector. This will help the community to engage in deep dives into
interesting topics about global education from a Wikimedia movement
perspective.

This month, the Education Team is hosting the first EduWiki Live on the
theme of *Wikidata and Curriculum Digitization*. We are aiming to highlight
the work that has been done in this area and how you can be a part of it.
For this event, we will be joined by guest speakers Ivan Savov, a
researcher working in the field of curriculum digitization and data models,
along with Ernest Gavor and Andrews Lartey representing the Ghana Society
for Education Technology (GSET).

Here is the brief agenda for the event:


   - A general update and news on things happening in the EduWiki
   community. An overview of the potential impact of aligning curriculum data
   on Wikidata, and where we are now with the Wikidata for Education
   <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Wikidata_for_Education> project
   by Nichole Saad.
   - Take a deep dive into the data models for curriculum standards
   <https://learningequality.org/r/digitizing-curriculum> with Ivan Savov:
   learn about the use cases for digital curriculum standards, the work done
   so far, and how this could be useful for the Wikimedia movement.
   - Meet our implementing partners from Ghana, learn what we want to
   accomplish with the Wikidata for Education project, and why it is important
   in the Ghanian context.



Open Q&A


You can watch the event live on Facebook and Youtube. For you to be able to
ask questions in your native language we encourage you to use the comment
option on Facebook, as it supports automatic translation, If you are
interested in helping translate questions and answers in the comments
please reach out to educat...@wikimedia.org

I hope you are doing well, I am writing this email to announce the call for
applications for the second cohort of EduWiki Outreach Collaborators. EduWiki
Outreach Collaborators or EWOC are a dynamic group of Wikimedians who
collaborate with the education team at the Wikimedia Foundation to provide
support, effective collaboration, and learning opportunities for the
education community in the Wikimedia movement.

In 2020, we started this pilot initiative to work with community leaders of
our movement to support volunteers in the movement with better networking,
communication practices for growth, and to work together to spread the
awareness on the value of Wikimedia in education. As a result of which we
had the opportunity to work with 14 Wikimedia community members from
various parts of the world. These volunteers helped in publishing 12
Education newsletters issues, shared many community stories from their
regions, and helped in hosting 3 regional education meetings with 54
participants from 20 countries.

This year we are planning to expand the program and we are planning to work
with 20 volunteers in 8 different roles. To have more information regarding
this program, please visit our Meta page.
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/EduWiki_Outreach_Collaborators#Roles>
The strategic goals are designed by the 2020-2021 cohort of volunteers.



We encourage volunteers from all regions and genders to be a part of this
project! We expect the group of EWOC to represent the diversity of our
movement and the call for participation will be open until we achieve this
goal. Respecting the privacy of the members, personal information provided
will not be shared with an external audience. To apply for this
opportunity, please complete this form.

[Wikimedia-l] Join us on July 29th! Information session: Training of Trainers for "Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom"

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians,

Last year, the Education team at the Wikimedia Foundation launched a pilot
teacher training program that helped teachers use Wikipedia in their
classrooms. Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom
<https://wikimediafoundation.org/our-work/education/reading-wikipedia-in-the-classroom/>
provided a professional development opportunity to over 500 teachers in
Bolivia, Morocco, and the Philippines with a localized curriculum and
resources aligned with UNESCO’s Media and Information Literacy framework.
Throughout this 9-week program, teachers developed vital media and
information literacy skills for the 21st century, including understanding
how information is produced, accessing and evaluating content online, and
identifying biases and knowledge gaps. All through the power of Wikipedia
<https://www.k12digest.com/changing-the-narrative-the-power-of-wikipedia-to-foster-21st-century-skills/>!
You can read more details about the pilot program and its impact in our
final report
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Reading_Wikipedia_Final_Report.pdf>
[1].

Now, we are opening up the opportunity to more Wikimedians, mission-aligned
organizations, and individuals to participate in a Training of Trainers
(ToT). By the end of the ToT, participants will be certified to lead
training for Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom. They will be able to adapt
& implement the Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom program in their local
contexts to help teachers use Wikipedia as a pedagogical tool. Participants
who successfully complete the ToT will also have access to a pool of
funding that can support their local activities. You can learn more about
the ToT timeline and curriculum on Meta
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Reading_Wikipedia_in_the_Classroom/ToT>
.

We think you or members of your community would be a great fit! We invite
you to attend an information session on Thursday, July 29 at 13:00 UTC via
Zoom <https://wikimedia.zoom.us/j/95280050770>. The team will share more
detailed information, answer questions, and announce the open call for
applications. If you have any questions ahead of this event, please don’t
hesitate to reach out to the team at educat...@wikimedia.org

We look forward to seeing you at the information session!

--the Education Team

[1]The program report
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Reading_Wikipedia_Final_Report.pdf>
shows us how teachers’ attitudes towards Wikipedia changed as they moved
through the curriculum, responded to practical assignments and reflection
questions, and participated in synchronous sessions led by local
coordinators of the program. For example, one of the participating teachers
from Bolivia said that at first he “thought that Wikipedia was a platform
like Google, but now I value all the volunteer work done by the community
behind it”. The program model also supported members of the local Wikimedia
affiliates to improve their capacity to organize and lead education
initiatives. Currently, the Wikimedians of Bolivia

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians,

I am writing this email to invite you all to the third regional education
meeting[1]. This month we are meeting with our community members based in
the South Asia region[2]. You can use these regional office hours as an
opportunity to learn and share your projects, tools, or ideas with the
education community from the region.

These regional education meetings are planned by the community specialists
of the EduWiki Outreach Collaborators (EWOC)[3] and the Education team. We
are using this as an opportunity to strengthen the EduWiki network, explore
collaboration opportunities, and identify common practices or challenges
that are faced by our community members in different regions of the world.
We are launching these regional office hours as a pilot initiative to
complement our general monthly office hours[4], we encourage you to
participate, share your ideas, and help this become a fully community-led
initiative.

Our first South Asia regional education meeting will take place on *30th
April 2021 at **9:30 UTC*, (3:00 PM IST, Colombo Time, 3:30 PM Dhaka Time,
3:15 PM Kathmandu Time), it will be led by Md. Galib, a member of Wikimedia
Bangladesh, and EWOC community specialist for the region. *If you want to
volunteer to interpret this meeting for your community members in a local
language, please reach out to me.*

At this South Asia regional education meeting, we will hear from:

   -

   Challenges with education in Covid 19: Is there any way to overcome?,
   Prof. Mostafa Azad, Country representative of CC Bangladesh, Dean, School
   of Business, Bangladesh Open University
   -

   Education initiatives by Punjabi Wikimedians UG, Dr. Manavpreet Kaur
   -

   State of Education projects by Karavali Wikimedians UG, Dr. U. B.
   Pavanaja



If you have other ideas, topics, or questions you want to ask, you can add
them to the agenda here[5]. We will try to answer them during the meeting.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!

Best!

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Join us for the Latin America regional education meeting

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hey Joao,

This meeting will be held in Spanish and led by José Reyes from Wikimedia
México. We won't be able to provide simultaneous translation for this
meeting but we are exploring the possibility for future iterations. I'm
looking particularly at the translation channel option over Zoom and it
would be great if somebody from the community could help us with the
translation if interested since this is a community-led event.

This is the first time we're trying this approach to the original education
office hours that were solely in English and each time we'll continue
making efforts to include more languages. Thank you for reaching out about
this!

Thanks
Sailesh

[Wikimedia-l] Join us for the first CEE regional education meeting

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians,

Hope your February is going well.

I am writing this email to invite you all to the very first regional
education meeting[1]. This month we are starting with our community members
based in the CEE region[2]. You can use these regional meetings as an
opportunity to learn and share your projects, tools, or ideas with the
education community from the CEE region.

These regional education meetings are planned by the community specialists
of the EduWiki Outreach Collaborators (EWOC)[3] and the Education team. We
are using this as an opportunity to strengthen the EduWiki network, explore
collaboration opportunities, and identify common practices or challenges
that are faced by our community members in different regions of the world.
We are launching these regional education meetings as a pilot initiative to
complement our general monthly office hours[4], we encourage you to
participate, share your ideas, and help this become a fully community-led
initiative.

Our first CEE education meeting will take place on 18th February 2021 at
13:00 UTC <https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1613653217>, it will be led by
Nebojša Ratkovic, Education Program Manager of Wikimedia Serbia[5] and EWOC
community specialist for the region. At this CEE meeting, Nebojša will
share some highlights from the 15 years of education work by Wikimedia
Serbia and have a questions-and-answers round. If you have other ideas,
topics, or questions you want to ask, you can add them to the agenda
here[6]. We will try to answer them during the meeting. We are looking
forward to seeing you there!

As a reminder, our general monthly office hours are still available for you
to join, share your work, connect with other community members, and get
help or advice from the Education team. The next general office hour is
scheduled for 24th February 2021 at 14:00 UTC, you can find the topics of
the meetings here[7]. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach
out to me.

Best!

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Social media cards for sharing from the Wikipedia app

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hey John,

I have been using that feature from a very long time, earlier it was known
as Share a fact but now it's share an image option on Wikipedia mobile app.
I have also shared this feature with a lot of Indian Wikipedians and here
you can find a learning pattern about how this works and how we can make
use of this feature.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Learning_patterns/Using_%27Share_a_fact%27_to_engage_social_media_followers_of_small_Wikipedias

Feel free to update it :)

Thanks

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Odisha Government's Social media accounts are now under CC-BY 4.0

[Sailesh Patnaik]

 Hi everyone,
I'm happy to share that, Two more websites by Government of Odisha are now
under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license. Both the
websites were launched by Govt. marking the 70th anniversary of Bhubaneswar
as the capital city of the state and till date Govt. has made seven of its
websites under CC.
Ps: This is the first time we didn't approach the officials for doing it
and they've done it of their own will.

[Wikimedia-l] Wikipedia Asian Month 2017

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hello everyone,

On behalf of the Wikipedia Asian Month organising team, I'm happy to share
that WAM has ended with a great success. This year, 694 users from 51
languages have created around 7429 articles in the month of November. We
would like to congratulate and thank all the local organisers for putting
their efforts in conducting WAM in their language Wikipedias.

In this year we collaborated with 7 events from different affiliates[1],
with 5 on-site edit-a-thons in different cities (Supported by the local
affiliates)[2].  We would also like to mention the collaboration between
Amical Wikimedia and Museum of Music, Barcelona, the collaboration between
both the organisations has helped in getting 31 images of Korean musical
instruments to Wikimedia Commons[3]. Also in this year, we tried to
maintain a website to update about any collaborations and activities for
the participants and organisers.[4]

This year Wikipedia Asian Month was a challenge for the international
organising team due to planning of campaign. But thanks to our awesome
local organisers it went really well. We will wrap up the campaign in a few
days and bring up more analysis the overall project.

Thanks and Regards
Eric, Kevin, Le Loi,  Liang & Sailesh

[Wikimedia-l] Bhubaneswar Heritage Edit-a-thon

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians,

I am happy to announce that  Bhubaneswar Heritage Edit-a-thon
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon/Report_contribution#Sangappadyamani>

The Odia Wikipedia community and the CIS-A2K have partnered with
Bhubaneswar Development Authority with the purpose to improve Wikipedia
articles and establish Bhubaneswar as a QRpedia city.

I invite Wikipedians to add the heritage sites of Bhubaneswar by creating
or improving articles in their language Wikipedias. You can see some
suggestions here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon/List>
and report
your contribution *here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon/Report_contribution>*
.

If you are an experienced Wikimedian and want to lead this initiative, become
an ambassador
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon/Participants#Ambassadors>
and
help to make the event a bigger success.

I would like to thank Odia Wikimedia User Group, CIS-A2K, Wikimedia Sweden
and WikiProject India (Wikidata) for supporting the event.

Please help us spread the word!

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hi Lane,

Thank you so much for your kind words,

It is all because of the active participation of the community members in
such initiative and also their effort in making these collaborations
successful.

l also believe that the WikiTungi program by the Odia community has helped
in making the  presence of the movement in the state and spread awareness
of the movement in Odisha. The community members in WikiTungi meetups are
very active and is a good platform for the community to learn and share
about the movement.

[Wikimedia-l] Odisha Government's Social media accounts are now under CC-BY 4.0

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hello Everyone,

I am glad to share a recent collaboration of Odia Wikipedia community with
the Government of Odisha.

After releasing the content of 2017 Asian Athletics Championships (
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/07/28/digest-asia-athletics-championships/
) another initiative by the Government of Odisha to bridge the dearth of
Information about Odisha on Wikipedia by releasing its social media
accounts under CC-BY 4.0.

Earlier this week, the community members met the Government officials
regarding this, and after understanding the value of Open Content, it took
only 24hrs to release the social media channels under CC-BY 4.0 license.

As a pilot project, 8 social media accounts from Government of Odisha are
under CC-BY 4.0,Now, the content is free for everyone to use, share, and
build upon their work.
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/09/18/odisha-social-media-free-license/

The community is also planning to take the collaboration further and
relicense some of the websites under CC-BY 4.0.

It's a six months long effort.

As the QRcodes will be installed in the signage of the monuments, we want
to make this editathon a multi-lingual editathon. So that it will be
helpful for tourists to access the information of the monuments in their
own languages.

We want to improve it in many Wikimedia projects, including Commons,
Wikidata..
For sure we will look into Wikivoyage. Thank you for suggesting.
Your help and support will make this project a successful project.

[Wikimedia-l] Bhubaneswar Heritage Edit-a-thon

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Hello all!

Greetings from Odia Wikipedia community!

I am happy to share that the Odia Wikipedians have succesfully forged a
partnership with Bhubaneswar Development Authority to conduct the
Bhubaneswar Heritage edit-a-thon.

This edit-a-thon is aimed to improve Bhubaneswar's digital presence – and
establish Bhubaneswar as a QRpedia city. With this edit-a-thon, Bhubaneswar
will be the first city in India to install QRpedia codes in all of its
heritage monuments.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon(page under
construction)

Bhubaneswar, also known as the "Temple City of India" has nearly 300
ancient temples of the Kalinga style architecture that dates back to the
late 6th century. This edit-a-thon will happen in two phases, In the first
phase, the BDA will release images and information of all state and
ASI-protected monuments under CC license to improve Wikipedia articles. The
second phase will be for unprotected monuments.

This edit-a-thon will take place globally in the month of August or
September. The BDA will provide souvenirs from Odisha to the Top 3
International and National (Indian) contributors. I request interested
Wikimedians to please sign up for this edit-a-thon and help Odia
Wikipedians to make this project a success. I will update other details on
the User Talk page of interested volunteers.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bhubaneswar_Heritage_Edit-a-thon/Participants

Thanks and Regards

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Sambad's 100 Women Editathon

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear All,

We finished the Sambad's 100 Women Editathon, As the event was of two days,
the first day was for training the journalists on “How to write on
Wikipedia, Create Account, Upload pictures etc”.. More than 30 journalists
and 3 Wikipedians from Bhubaneswar Tungi attended the event on first day.

On second day, All total 23 journalists and 6 Wikipedians from the
WikiTungi attended the event. The Wikipedians helped the journalists in
writing articles and almost 23 articles were created or improved during the
editathon. We shared the WikiTungi concept during the event and the
journalists were interested in taking part in Tungi meetups and learn more
about Wikipedia.
Tanaya Patnaik, the Executive Director of Eastern Media ltd. also announced
that the Tungi community in Bhubaneswar can use the "Ama Odisha" office for
the meetups. Sambad is also planning for Wiki Training camps in different
parts of Odisha, hope we will hear some good news about this.

I have some nice stories to share, I will share a broad report of this
event in the Wikimedia blog and will write a learning pattern on how the
two days event idea worked for this, how Sambad's effort helped in getting
some good articles and local community participation made it easy.  :)

I think it's the mutual interest by both Sambad and the Odia Wikipedia
community,  I remember Asaf's data (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ijon/Content_gap )helped me to explain
the gender gap in the content of Odia Wikipedia. I will share a learning
pattern after the event :)

The event is mainly focused on improving the quality of articles related to
Women on Odia Wikipedia, We hope the journalists will turn into Wikipedians
and make it successful. There's an assurance from Ama Odisha, a unit of
Eastern Media Ltd. that after the event they'll organise Odia Wikipedia
editing camps in different parts of Odisha.

[Wikimedia-l] First anniversary of Bhubaneswar WikiTungi

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Friends,
On 9th February 2017, Wikipedians in Bhubaneswar celebrated the first
anniversary of Bhubaneswar WikiTungi.

WikiTungi [1] is a city based  Wikipedia community formed to help the
Wikipedians in the city to meet, share and learn. The Odia community's
WikiTungi is a based in two cities, Puri and Bhubaneswar. While Wikimedians
in Puri conduct meetups bi-monthly, Bhubaneswar Wikimedians meet once a
month. In every meetup, Wikimedians exchange their resources with each
other, helping address their doubts and queries regarding their problems
and projects.

During the first anniversary meeting of the Bhubaneswar WikiTungi,  The
community members came up with few ideas to implement it as a best practice
in the Wikipedia movement.

*The Tungi members will invite one of the global community leaders for a
Skype or hangout session.
* Discuss the best practice from the global community and discuss them with
the community.
*Updating the minutes of the meeting and sharing them with the other
community members.
*Updating the learning and evaluation team about the new learning of the
community every month.
*The community will also send Postcards as a souvenir to the participants
of the global community for the online sessions.

We invite you to join us for the hangout sessions and share your best
practice with the Tungi members[2]. Please feel free to suggest us more
ideas.

[Wikimedia-l] Odia Wikimedia community documents Ratha Jatra on Wikimedia Commons.

[Sailesh Patnaik]

Dear Wikimedians,

Ratha Jatra is one of the longest running festivals of Odisha running for
over a month. The festival starts from Akshaya Trutiya and ends after
Bahuda Jatra.This festival dates back to more than 1000 years.

This year, a few Wikimedians from Puri are documenting the process of
building the  ratha (chariot) making . They are also uploading every phase
of the building process on Wikimedia Common. Many of the images have been
already uploaded and a lot more are going to uploaded in the due course of
time.

You can see the pictures in the project category :

Co-ordinators:

1. Jagannath Dora

2. Dinesh Das

3. Dibyadarshi Nayak

4. Ramachandra Nayak


Thanks and Regards

Dear Nataliia ,
Sharing the images under CC zero is very good. I will discuss this with the
