Queremos desafiar la definición tradicional d'educación. Na comunidá EduWiki creyemos qu'editar ye deprender. Si creyes nel cambéu al traviés del facer, ¡tas nel llugar correutu!

The goal of this global campaign is to engage educators in using Wikimedia Projects in their lessons, namely Wikipedia. To this end, we have created four different lesson plans, for you to pick what works best for your classroom and test with your students.

This is a chance for you to get to know more about the Wikimedia Education Program, the Education Collaborative, and get some hands-on practice with tested activities. Your work can advance digital literacy in education and strengthen the connections of our international community.

Join the campaign from September 4 to October 31.
