Wikiversity project
Wikiversity is a centre for the creation and use of free learning materials and activities. Its primary priorities and goals are to:
- Create and host a range of free, multilingual learning resources, for all age groups in all languages
- Host scholarly/learning projects that complement existing Wikimedia projects (eg. a project devoted to finding good sources for Wikipedia articles)
- Host and foster research based in part on existing resources in Wikiversity and other Wikimedia projects (such as Wikibooks, Wikisource etc.)
See more on Wikiversity/Scope.
What Wikiversity is
- A repository of free, multilingual educational resources.
- A network of communities to create and use these resources
- A group effort to learn. Which may or may not, be lead by an instructor (who, again, may or may not be an expert on the topic).
- A collaboration to improve other projects. When participants have significant results they may be used to improve other Wikimedia projects, and indeed other online learning, reference and data sources.
