English subtitles for clip: File:Wikipedia in Education (5 of 12) Brochures and tutorials.webm

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,520


2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,600
Our favorite brochure so
far is Editing Wikipedia.

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,620
We distribute it mainly between
educators and librarians

4
00:00:16,620 --> 00:00:19,060
who attend our Wiki workshops.

5
00:00:19,060 --> 00:00:24,530
These are mostly adults who
are used to having something

6
00:00:24,530 --> 00:00:26,420
printed in their hands.

7
00:00:26,420 --> 00:00:29,250
And then, it's easier
for them to look

8
00:00:29,250 --> 00:00:32,500
in a printed brochure
and then on the screen,

9
00:00:32,500 --> 00:00:33,750
comparing what they see.

10
00:00:33,750 --> 00:00:59,050


11
00:00:59,050 --> 00:01:01,210
Of course, it's impossible
to teach everything

12
00:01:01,210 --> 00:01:02,550
in one and a half hours.

13
00:01:02,550 --> 00:01:06,530
Wikimedia is well-developed
in online courses

14
00:01:06,530 --> 00:01:10,900
and online tutorials,
some kind of course ware

15
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:14,020
that helps to teach people
how Wikipedia works.

16
00:01:14,020 --> 00:01:16,970
For us, it was basic for
having our educational portal

17
00:01:16,970 --> 00:01:20,580
in Catalan languages
because, despite the saying,

18
00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:23,080
not everybody wants
to speak English.

19
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,070
We built a tool that serves
as a Q&A for our participants

20
00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:29,810
to come in and
actually ask questions.

21
00:01:29,810 --> 00:01:32,490
And then, it notifies
us, and we can answer it.

22
00:01:32,490 --> 00:01:37,030
I created for them the survival
manual because every year,

23
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:41,370
with every semester,
I try to be different.

24
00:01:41,370 --> 00:01:46,230
So they cannot get a preliminary
idea what is going to happen.

25
00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:50,400
So if you are going into
a particular program,

26
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,630
just go to the outreach Wiki,
just go to the other meta pages

27
00:01:53,630 --> 00:01:55,230
where a lot of
documentation has been

28
00:01:55,230 --> 00:01:56,960
done about the
existing education

29
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,010
collaboration activities.

30
00:01:59,010 --> 00:02:05,670
Contact the WMF staff, contact
the program leaders directly

31
00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:08,490
and talk with them and ask
about their experiences

32
00:02:08,490 --> 00:02:12,580
before you do something new.

33
00:02:12,580 --> 00:02:22,035
