Target outcome Achieved outcome Explanation
Number of events - 2 2 events were organised Two events were organized. We plan to organize additional events to train and engage participants we didn't select to participate last year
Number of participants - 35 A total of 70 editors participated and at least 59 created an account (see our event dashboard) There are more than 400 students in my department but we couldn't train all of them. We only selected 100 in this pilot phase. We plan to engage other later this year.
Number of articles created or improved - 33 A total of 42 new articles were created and at least 64 articles were edited We are glad that many of the participants continue to contribute. We hope to organize monthly Edit-a-thon to engage them.

Projects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:

  • What worked well?
1. Everything worked well. The participants were excited about the training opportunity
2. We asked the participants to create their account ahead of the training
  • What did not work so well?
There is none I am aware of
  • What would you do differently next time?
We will use the same model as that worked well as planned
