Hi Leo, Finally here! Not a guy but a woman. From Spain. Sorry, but what´s so amazing about my suggestion?! Always introduced a real purpose within my teaching practice (whether social or not), enhances learning by providing a clear focus and stimulating minds. Student engagement is prime to me. My current research is about the interconnections between arts, technology & science and potential applications to social science methodology and language learning.
Drawing resources basically requires defining needs, a well-thought structure, and dragging people in. I know some who´d be glad to take part (NGO, lecturers, researchers, psychologists). New here, so I don´t know if wikieducator is the best starting point (?) Or maybe one page here linking to wikiversity (?)
