Wikimedia Bookshelf: Using Wikipedia in the Classroom

Wikimedia Bookshelf: Using Wikipedia in the Classroom

Students and faculty using Wikipedia may be interested in the publications available via the Wikimedia Bookshelf.

A selection of PDF documents offer an introduction to Wikipedia (what it offers and how it works), a guide to evaluating article quality, and an introduction to public domain and free licenses.

Instructors might also be interested in the guide to Using Wikipedia as a teaching tool in higher education and links to sample assignments.

For more information, watch the archived Educause presentation, Wikipedia in the Classroom: Changing the Way Teachers and Students Use Wikipedia.
