Wikimedia DC hosting Wiki Ed workshop, Feb. 12

Year_of_Science_Logo.svgOn Friday, February 12, the Wiki Education Foundation will join university instructors in Washington, D.C., to talk about the Year of Science. Together, we’ll discuss how to share comprehensive science information with millions of readers by improving Wikipedia articles in the sciences. Along the way, we’ll challenge university students across the United States and Canada to improve critical thinking, media literacy, and science communications skills.

We thank Wikimedia DC members for hosting us!

Space is limited; please RSVP here. Instructors and faculty from any institution of higher education are invited to attend.

We’re grateful to Google and the Simons Foundation for providing major support for the Year of Science in 2016. Hope to see you there!
