Introduction
This course demonstrates how to add content to Wikipedia using the MediaWiki editing tools, with ideas for how learners can add a page that showcases their school, class or project.
It is hugely empowering for students – how often do they normally get to publish to the largest encyclopaedia in the world?
The reflective cycle
Vital courses are based on a cycle of professional reflective practice as shown in the diagram below.
This cycle draws on, and develops, personal and professional knowledge bases. The latter may be seen in the literature, resources, policies and other materials that are used to inform practice.
Throughout the course small icons will indicate the stage of the cycle being addressed.
NB Prof/Pers KB = Professional/Personal knowledge base.
