Wikipedia in the Classroom (CDSC Workshop)

This session will provide a brief overview of the communities, policies, and protocols that shape Wikipedia in order to facilitate deeper engagement with the platform in the classroom. In addition to providing instruction on how to technically edit and contribute to Wikipedia, during the session we will explore how to read the unspoken knowledge practices embedded in the free encyclopedia anyone can edit, but to varying results.

February 1, 2 – 4 p.m., CDSC, 4th floor Holland Library.

Bringing a laptop to work on is encouraged, but not required.
