Revision as of 21:53, 7 November 2006

Where are the courses?
Waiting for you to create one. The Wikiversity is young (started summer 2006) and depends on its contributors (anyone can contribute) for its content. However, we prefer the terminology Learning Projects.

Whatever they're called you can organize an online learning project here. No fees paid or collected. No degrees or certificates awarded. Just learning. Go ahead. Put together and lead an online learning project right here.

Follow these links to learn how: Intro to Learning Projects • The Main Learning Projects Page • Credentials, diplomas & provenance • Policies • Learning • Education

This template can be placed on a Wikiversity page currently lacking Learning Projects.

However, the wiki user interface is not well-suited for a conventional course format. The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees has directed the Wikiversity community away from courses (the [[Wikiversity:Original proposal#Evaluation of the old proposal|Board's comments]]). Wikiversity participants are encouraged to innovate and create learning experiences that take full advantage of the wiki format of  online community interactions. Non-traditional '''[[Wikiversity:Learning projects|Learning Projects]]''' that are oriented towards learning about [[Wikiversity:Browse|conventional course subjects]] are encouraged within Wikiversity. See: [[Wikiversity:Learning]] and [[Portal:Education]].</div>
