Empower your students to make a difference this fall! Run a Wikipedia assignment this coming academic year, and help your students to develop and hone critical media literacy skills, become a responsible digital citizen, and tackle misinformation all in one project!
There are a multitude of ways your students can ensure that Wikipedia has the most up-to-date coverage of Linguistics - from writing about endangered languages and cultures to linguistic theories and concepts to ensuring that all those who have made contributions to the field are represented. Join the thousands of students who have already added over two million words to Wikipedia as a course assignment: https://dashboard.wikiedu.org/campaigns/Linguistic_Society_of_America/overview
Sign up to attend one of our upcoming workshops on how to teach with Wikipedia here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZApdeCupzwtEtNVaIWYtWTV6d-frza2C89B#/registration
Also be sure to visit teach.wikiedu.org to find out how you can get started for the Fall 2023 term!
Wiki Education's support is fully funded, and there are no fees to participate. The program is open to post-secondary institutions in the U.S. and Canada.
I hope you'll join us in this critical work to make Wikipedia a more accurate, accessible and equitable space for all!
