Another reason to celebrate! The Learning4Content (L4C) project has trained 1057 educators since we started in January this year! Learning4Content is likely the world's largest attempt to develop wiki skills for education.
We've completed 28 workshops (14 face-to-face workshops and 14 Online). We've presented L4C workshops in India, Kenya, Nauru, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Sri Lanka, The Solomon Islands, Tonga and Zambia. Our online workshops have attracted participants from 80 different countries! My personal thanks goes to all our facilitators and the community members who are helping WIkiEducator achieve its objectives. We aim to train 2500 educators by 31 December 2008 and have achieved 42% of our target with 3.5 months to go. Our average of 88 educators per month for the first the first six months has increased to 212 educators per month for the period 1 July to 12 September 2008. We need your help to improve this average and achieve our target of 2500 educators by the end of the year. You can help by: 1) Sending an email to your colleagues and friends inviting them to register for one of the remaining international online workshops: http://wikieducator.org/Learning4Content/Registration 2) Using your social software networks to tell the world about L4C -- eg blog about the L4C project. 2) Scheduling and facilitating your own online L4C workshop by recruiting a minimum of 15 participants from your own networks. 3) Asking your employer/institution to host a face-to-face workshop and recruiting 15 colleagues to join the WikiEducator family. Remember to register your expression of interest on the L4C bounty page: http://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Bounties/WikiEducator_facilitators L4C is generously supported with funding from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. Let's show our funder that WikiEducator will achieve its objectives.
