| A school is a large organizational structure which can contain various departments and divisions. The departments and divisions should be listed in the departments and divisions section. The school page itself should not contain many learning resources. The school page can contain some [[Portal:Learning Projects|projects]] for developing [[Portal:Learning Materials|learning resources]], but most learning resources are linked to from specialized portals in the "Topic:" namespace. The School of Biology is for coordinating the activity of Wikiversity participants who edit the biology-related pages of Wikiversity.
| | == Learning projects and resources == |
| | Learning materials and learning projects can be used by multiple departments. Please cooperate with other departments that use the same learning resource. |
|
| |
|
| ==Divisions and departments==
| | Remember, Wikademia has adopted the "learning by doing" model for education. Lessons should center on learning activities for Wikademia participants. |
| Divisions and Departments of the School exist on pages in "topic" namespace. Start the name of departments with the "Topic:" prefix; departments reside in the [[Wikiversity:Namespaces|Topic: namespace]]. Departments and divisions link to learning materials and learning projects. Divisions can link subdivisions or to departments. For more information on schools, divisions and departments look at the [[Wikiversity:Naming_conventions|Naming Conventions]].
| |
| Note: Some of the subject areas listed below may still have [[b:Wikiversity:School of Biology|associated pages at Wikibooks]] that still need to be imported to Wikiversity. If you do not see what you are looking for, feel free to start a new [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Communities#Proposed_Learning_Projects Learning Project]. (List topics alphabetically)
