That was so interesting valerie, Thanks for the comparison. "Wikipedia was entirely collaborative development from the outset. Whether intended or not, WikiEducator has been much more about the practice of open "publishing".
I've always been interested in how the two domains would complement one another, especially as they use the same engine; and wayne's mention of a "static version of course materials in Connexions": and "an educational adaption of the Flagged Revisions extension for Mediawiki for implementing peer review" gives me a better idea of how three domains might. Wikipedia as the the top layer (of chaos and promotion), wikieducator (and others) as the peers, and a fixed archive (in Connexions as one). I can't add anything terrible useful here. My interest is more in working through the real time tools that might be shared between members of edu networks and domains, and lobbying governments to put a cc license on every one of their GLAMs. But can I point you at this page in the wikipedia strategy process. http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Questions_that_need_answers The main areas are at Point 5. Alliances and partnerships and technology infrastructure. Some interesting questions which collaboration between domains might answer better than any one by itself. Any answers from wikieducators will certainly be welcomed. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
