Hi Sandister This is wonderful. Thank you!
Would you be able to share the guide to getting started, and possibly the course outline? Like your group, I also want to approach the Wiki part of the course in terms of writing an article + peer review. But I'm struggling with the chronology of the course. I'm thinking, for instance, it could run like this (for honours and masters students): 0. My own scoping exercise to see what topics are missing/under-developed on Wikipedia 1. Have a dedicated workshop on Wikipedia and editing + have short discussions about Wiki after each seminar 2. Ask them to choose an article to write or edit 3. Ask them to produce an annotated bibliography on the topic 4. Ask them to submit a wiki article outline 5. Ask them to submit a wiki draft article 6. Ask them to review two students' draft articles 7. Ask them to revise their own draft article after receiving peer feedback and submit the final version 8. Ask them to submit an outline of an academic essay on the same topic 9. Ask them to submit the essay 10. I review and send back 11. Ask them to revise and resubmit I'm not expecting you to comment on the structure, but I just wanted you to see how much I might benefit from seeing your course outline/structure and experiences :) Warmly, Nimi On Tue, Feb 26, 2019 at 9:55 PM Sandister Tei <[email protected]> wrote: > You can check out this article > <https://wmghug.wordpress.com/2018/06/30/when-students-become-teachers/> > my usergroup wrote after our first WEP. > > We have a simplified guide to getting started in the works but we can > share experiences with you. > > –– > Regards > Sandister Tei | Curator Media & Journalism, re:publica Accra | Citi FM/TV > | Wikimedia Ghana UG representative + co – founder | Purple People > > m: +23320266290 tw: @SandisterTei <https://twitter.com/SandisterTei> ig: > @s.andister <https://www.instagram.com/s.andister/> > > re:publica – The most inspiring festival for the digital society. > See you in Accra December 14-15 2018! > Web <https://accra18.re-publica.com/> | Facebook > <https://www.facebook.com/rpAccra/> | Twitter > <http://www.twitter.com/republica> > > republica GmbH | Schönhauser Allee 6-7 | 10119 Berlin HRB 137440 B | AG > Berlin-Charlottenburg | Geschäftsführer: Andreas Gebhard > > > > > > On Sun, Feb 10, 2019 at 10:12 AM Nimi Hoffmann <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> One last quick question: does anyone know if there are any Wikipedia >> campus >> ambassadors in the Eastern Cape?
