Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop

Students use Wikipedia — but have you ever thought of asking them to contribute content to Wikipedia?

In this short workshop, LiAnna Davis from the Wiki Education Foundation will explain best practices for using Wikipedia as a teaching tool.

In contributing content to Wikipedia, students gain skills in media literacy, fact-based writing, research, collaboration, and critical thinking.

You’ll learn how Wiki Ed can support you and your students in this innovative service learning assignment.
