Teaching with Wikipedia. Registration required.
In this 50-minute webinar, you'll learn how to use a Wikipedia assignment and how to access Wiki Education's free support and resources. With the rise of AI, assessing student work is challenging. This session, presented by Andrés Vera from Wiki Education will show how a Wikipedia assignment can take students beyond the classroom. By using faculty expertise and Wikipedia's rules, students can fill content gaps, improve representation, and enhance citations. Wiki Education supports many faculty in the U.S. and Canada with custom syllabi, resources, training, and staff support. Students gain research, writing, and digital literacy skills while improving knowledge equity. Register for event required https://saskpolytech.zoom.us/meeting/register/2I47c0llRmKcUYbyC59RzQ
