Hi Everyone, WikiEducator believes *learning materials* should be *free* for *all students* of the world. WE invest in *educators* to *share knowledge*freely.
The preparations for our inaugural public gifting campaign are progressing well. WE can stand proud judging by the number of senior educational leaders and OER practitioners around the world who have taken the time to provide WikiEducator with a motivational message on why the gift of knowledge is important for education futures. This would not have been possible without your dedicated commitment to our vision. We now have 14,100 users and are growing by the day! On behalf of the WikiEducator family -- I have conveyed our sincere thanks and appreciation for these contributions. See: http://wikieducator.org/OERF:Why_donate WE are serious about getting OER right -- but also doing things the right way. As you will appreciate, there is considerable work behind the scenes in getting the technology to work in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the requirements for a professional philanthropic organisation working in the formal education sector. We are very fortunate to have the calibre of skills of our Lead Software Engineer ensuring that our technologies will run smoothly for the campaign. Jim -- BIG thanks for your tireless efforts behind the scenes. Pretty soon we'll be able to launch our first public giving campaign -- an important milestone in WikiEducator's evolution. WE will need your help in spreading the word - So watch this space :-) Cheers Wayne -- Wayne Mackintosh, Ph.D. Director, International Centre for Open Education, Otago Polytechnic, New Zealand.
