Help wanted
List projects where WikiEducators volunteers can contribute to project work. Be sure to include specific instructions for the help you need.
Some ways volunteers can help - web research finding references, finding pictures, reviewing and commenting...
- WE learning objects reviews - project to identify interesting WikiEducator pages or "learning objects" and write brief description of why they selected this WikiEducator page. Everyone is invited to add their favorites. Also need help creating a template so these can be added in a consistent format. This is the beginning of a WE learning object directory to accompany open learning adoption workshops.
- Ultrastudio.org is looking for university-grade educational Java applets, in any condition. If you are a professor who wrote them in the 1990's for your course, we are ready to take over them, also under the terms of GPL or other open-source licenses. Our existing team of highly competent volunteers can also easily fix the code that is no longer running.
