 For me the most important thing is making sure assignment design is good do the assignment first Really try to go through with designed an assignment So how can how does it look for you when you do it yourself in preparation for? bringing your students into wikipedia when I teach them about editing wikipedia I Stress the fact that you cannot copy the entire contents of your textbook into wikipedia plagiarism is something we ran into over and over and so Really learning students plagiarize we need to talk to them about it. They need to understand What is plagiarism? What is close paraphrasing on wikipedia? Why is it wrong? Why is it bad? Why will it be found and and just help them learn how to avoid it? I'm very Straight about the references because one thing that I want them to understand is that you have to find References one of the most important things is for instructors to investigate their student skills. So if you are targeting For example arts students You should prepare them to add two comments more than wikipedia because they will not be really interested in writing But they will be interested in taking pictures of stuff. I work with the teachers and the postgraduate students of this department They have a great collection of images of under the microscope We upload these pictures to wikipedia comments and we write descriptions of what a particular image is and then we put These images with their descriptions to Wikipedia articles themselves what the students basically do is write medical Related articles in wikipedia. It's called wikimed. I run it at Sackler School of Medicine at Tel Aviv University so far my students wrote about a hundred and seventy articles those articles got around a million views so far I Took that course and I adjusted it a bit to open it to not only medical students, but students From every discipline on campus and we got a special permission from the rector at the university to basically Give an elective course to every undergraduate student one of the the models of working with teenagers is Just giving them assignments like for students, but they should be a bit easier because they're not on the knowledge level of students well university students so Giving them a bit more a bit easier tasks is Something that has proven to be better Making sure you know where they are before you assign them something that is going to be too challenging for them as important Usually wikipedia will be a bit too advanced for them to do writing assignments. So we have something called wikimini for example, which is a separate wiki and it's The free encyclopedia for children Who children edit creating articles and wikipedia name space or their user name space is something better because it doesn't immediately go To the mercy of the community, but they can work on it in weeks to come right and just Polish the article until it's ready editing victory Doesn't have the same requirements as editing writing an article in encyclopedic style When they gain enough experience they can move to wikipedia. They can write wikibooks. We've had Both students on the university level and high school level work on wikibooks, which is not as strict as wikipedia in terms of rules and policies. Okay, if there is a two-week assignment, why don't you Finish your wikipedia article in the middle of the first week And then you have one whole week for fixing all the typos adding the references. Having a course page for your class is super important You need to document. What are the user names? What is the content they're actually adding to wikipedia. After you have done something make sure that you document it
