Join us for a 90-minute workshop exploring the intersection of Wikipedia and OER, two powerful resources. We’ll start with an overview of Wikipedia as a high-profile, Creative Commons-licensed resource; then we’ll draw parallels between critiques of OER and critiques of Wikipedia. Finally, we’ll launch into some hands-on time to edit pages relevant to Open Ed Week, so you can put your newfound knowledge to practice. Please create a Wikipedia account before the workshop.
This workshop will be led by Laurie Bridges, an OSU librarian and co-founder of the Wikimedia Campaign #EveryBookItsReader.
