| Abstract | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| This workshop intends to explore key questions around Wikiversity's practice and the wider context into which it fits. It will involve discussion about aspects like learning done in a "wiki way", and how Wikiversity fits into the wider context of Wikimedia projects and the wider OER (Open Educational Resources) movement. It is intended to generate practical suggestions as to how Wikiversity can continue to develop as an educational space and resource. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
