Utilization of Wikimedia in Lessons

[edit]

Abstract/description

[edit]

Wikimedia projects belong in education hence it is strategic to promote these open educational resources among teachers and engage them in our movement. Wikimedians who are teachers by profession have a great opportunity to impart to their colleagues and students how valuable Wikimedia is as a free resource and as a platform to share useful learning materials. Academic institutions can serve as a venue to clarify misconceptions and apprehensions about the utilization of open educational resources.

Relationship to ESEAP or to the theme

[edit]

This session will serve as a venue to impart educational initiatives in the Philippines that can resonate to communities in ESEAP and beyond.
