Hi Asaf. I hope you and yours are doing well! Let me respectfully disagree with what you just said about Wikiversity. Most of the features you have mentioned that led you to choose the development of WikiLearn are actually addressed on the project, for instance in the cMOOC templates. In this

Thank you all for your questions, feedback and excitement about the WikiLearn platform. We wanted to take this opportunity to provide some clarity on the choice to utilize an Open edX platform instead of Wikiversity. Last year, we led a pilot to better

Cassie + Asaf -- again, very cool, I'd like to share this more widely, but it's still a bit too confusing. - Courses includes some test courses that should probably be hidden, many copies of each course, and no details for the Harassment course. - It's not clear if

Mike, The new course platform is really "intended to serve the entire Wikimedia movement!" - opposite to what you believe; you have access via your Wikimedia account. The platform is a real MOOC platform, unlike other MediaWiki powered sites. Geert Van Pamel

Ah, OK, so it's not "intended to serve the entire Wikimedia movement!" - it's focused on internal Wikimedia training, not external users? I missed that, sorry, and thanks for the correction. It's still quite embarrassing that WMF doesn't like 'dogfooding':

Wow! I am just seeing this, now. Sincerely, this is a great initiative. Already, our affiliate is working on developing a very similar program (WikiAcademy), and we plan to launch it in June. We will be glad to learn from the team. All the same, I am glad about what I am seeing. Olushola On

Mike, As I understand it, this platform is for curated courses related to editing Wikipedia. Wikiversity has a much wider scope. I don't see a conflict between them. Best, Rae User:Vermont on Wikimedia projects they/them/theirs

But if WMF is choosing to actively support and develop a new platform for this kind of activity, and continues to not support Wikiversity to do the same, that’s quite a clear message? Thanks, Mike > On 12 May 2022, at 22:57, Asaf Bartov wrote: > >  > No. There is no change to Wikiversity.

If you're planning to iron out some kinks: here's a suggestion: In the introduction to the course it is claimed that victims of harassment "may even develop broad health issues that continue long-after their harassment has stopp​ed" that include (among other things) stomach ulcers. It is well

This is beautiful. Nice to see Open edX in use. Feels like incentive to package a range of workshops and materials up in a reusable and discoverable way! Open to WikiEdu + other community courses also? SJ On Wed, May 11, 2022 at 1:25 PM Cassie Casares wrote: > Hello everyone, > > The
