Purpose of this page?
Should this be more specific: links and brief descriptions of WikiEducator activities in South Africa?
I suspect we could direct people elsewhere for an overview of education in South Africa (e.g. DoE and perhaps some of the associations' web sites: SAIDE, SchoolNets, etc.) ... and perhaps indicate regional activities (with links to DEASA, NADEOSA, ...)?
Kim,
From my perspective this page should be a hub for people to connect with each other around WikiEducator related activities in South Africa. A node for different teams to evolve in moving free content development forward in ways that are relevant and appropriate for South Africa.
For context I think it is valuable to include links related initiatives. I also think that there is scope for regional nodes as well - good examples being FLOSS4Edu and Wiki_Pasifika.
That said - these nodes should evolve the wiki way in that the contributors determine the structure and content for their respective country pages. What do you think?
I guess a good question to ask would be - What would the average WikiEducator user expect to find on the country page?
Looking at the existing page - I think that it needs a critical revision :-)
Chat to you soon.
Ok, restructured - another temporary model. We (i.e. including you whoever you are reading this :-) should probably think about the use cases/scenarios - the goals of the visitors. This might lead to something totally different in terms of structure.
e.g. Find Wikieducators in southern Africa, find organisations using it, contribute a course/tutorial, etc., learn about ..., tell a story, find out what is happening (news), etc.
