[Air-L] Apply by August 11 to teach with Wikipedia this Fall!

[Helaine Blumenthal]

With the fall term just around the corner, I wanted to share a high-impact
teaching opportunity that faculty have called “the most transformative
assignment ever” – the Wikipedia assignment
<https://wikiedu.org/teach-with-wikipedia/>.

Research studies
<https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4174200> continue to
discover the ways in which Wikipedia not only reflects public knowledge,
but can shape it.  With the Wikipedia assignment, students develop their
research, writing, and media literacy skills while making real-world,
hands-on impact on knowledge equity by improving the world’s largest
open-access encyclopedia.

Nonprofit organization Wiki Education helps faculty of all disciplines
across the U.S. and Canada incorporate the Wikipedia assignment into their
courses by providing custom syllabi, comprehensive student training
modules, digital tools to track student work, subject-specific materials,
and staff support – all free of charge.
