Brief Introduction

My name is Patricia Schlicht and I have been working with and for Dr. Wayne Mackintosh' as the Learning4Content Coordinator and Community Builder on Wikieducator in my function as Programme Assistant at COL.

In 2000, I joined the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) and have brought my international experiences from a variety of national and international governments and non-government organisations to COL. Since working at COL, I have gained extensive knowledge in open and distance learning (ODL) and technology-mediated learning, among many other things. I was introduced to the concept of Free/Libre Open Education in eLearning in May 2006. I have since gradually increased my knowledge in the area of e-Learning. I am now actively involved in promoting WikiEducator and building capacity in the global communities.

I am actively facilitating our WikiEducator online training workshops, monitor and evaluate all WikiEducator activities,among the many other activities I am involved in, building a sustainable global network of WikiEducators.

Professional Interests

Technology and social change; multicultural education; distance and open education resource education; community development; planning and implementing changes in educational policy and programming; women/children and development.

• assisting to expand the scope, scale and quality of learning by learning and using new approaches;
• being part of a passionate and goal-oriented team of professionals that drive the development agenda forward;
• having found the field of work that really excites me because it makes a difference in the lives of others;
• being valued for my contributions and being part of a goal-oriented team;
