[Wikimedia-l] Re: Building Partnerships and Identifying and Addressing Harassment Online self-guided courses now available on WikiLearn platform

2022-05-17 Thread João Alexandre Peschanski 
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 example on Wikiversity in
Portuguese
,
there is a learning management system set up (tabs at the top
),
that has even been described in a peer-reviewed journal of technology and
education (in Portuguese
).
Certificates are not provided through Wikiversity, indeed, but this could
be easily implemented (in the framework we have developed certification
happens on this toolforge platform ). Of
course, development is needed in our projects, and this remains true also
for Wikiversity, and I am sorry this project of yours was finally not an
opportunity for investing in this development and reach a better outcome,
that would actually respond to the call of Skill and Leadership
recommendation with more attention to collaborative governance and
community consultation.

Best,

João

2022-05-17 Thread Asaf Bartov 
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 understand how to move our once in-person capacity building
experiences online. The goal of the pilot was to ensure we were developing
an optimal learning environment that could deliver live courses, facilitate
peer discussions and provide graded assignments with instructor feedback
for two cohorts of learners. Unfortunately, Wikiversity could not provide
these elements.

Wikiversity is a system for collaborating on creating and sharing
curricula. It is not a learning management system, nor was it ever designed
to be one. It does not support the critical functions necessary for online
learning such as dynamic exercises and assignments, learner tools,
instructor tools (e.g. grading assignments, messaging learners, monitoring
progress), computer-grading, certificates and badges, learner cohorts,
scheduled live sessions, and more.

Wikiversity's greatest strength -- Mediawiki's world-class collaboration
features -- is not a core  priority for online curriculum development
(which in an overwhelming number of cases is the work of a sole or lead
author and one or more known and selected assistants, rather than of peers
collaborating publicly and pseudonymously), and is significantly less
important than any of the above features it lacks.

The WikiLearn platform stewarded by the Community Development team, and
called for by the Skill and Leadership recommendation

of Movement Strategy, does need to be more than a wiki for developing and
sharing curricula; it needs a learner-centered user experience, human and
computer-automated assessment features and much more. Utilizing Wikiversity
was never a viable option for our programmatic and capacity building goals.

We also acknowledge the sentiment, “why not invest in Wikiversity to
address the shortcomings you have outlined?

Quite simply, we wanted to implement WikiLearn within a year or so, and
utilize the resources the team had to do so. To overhaul the software
running Wikiversity so that it would become a full-blown learning
management system with the features needed would have been a multi-year
undertaking, including research, community consultation, design,
development, testing, etc., and it is not within the mandate of our team to
lead this type of work independently.  Therefore, we prioritized choosing
an existing, tried and true LMS system that is free software as the best
values-aligned path to achieving the goal of an open platform for online
learning.



For the Community Development team,

 Dear Friends,

 On behalf of the WikiIndaba Steering Committee (WISCom
 ), I
 would like to announce that the next WikiIndaba Conference
  for 2022 will be organised
 by Wikimedia Usergroup Rwanda. The conference will take place between 4
 and 6 November 2022 in a hybrid format where participants will attend
 online and in person in Kigali, Rwanda.

 This comes after an invitation to bid was sent to all African
 affiliates by WISCom early in April, and several good and deserving
 candidates responded. A rigorous selection process then followed which
 considered several factors including candidates’ motivational statements,
 capacity to host the conference,  bringing the conference to a region where
 it has not been held before and if there were national elections planned in
 the applicant's country for this year.


 More details about scholarships and programme will be provided later.

 We look forward to supporting and working with Wikimedia UG Rwanda to
 ensure the conference becomes a success.

 Best regards,

 Bobby Shabangu
