Welcome to the

WIKIVERSITY

Departments

Find a course

Browse the courses listed or requested of the various Wikiversity Schools. If you cannot find a particular course, you can request it or start building it yourself.

About the Wikiversity

Wikiversity is a wiki-based learning community. Here you can use online courses and also create courses yourself. See this page for some ideas about what the Wikiversity might become. Also, see more of how Wikiversity supports learning.

Different entry points and rough theory, as well as example forms are also available.

Discussing the Wikiversity

For previous discussions see the Meta page on Wikiversity. Since there is now a formal proposal to set up Wikiversity as a new Wikimedia project, try to keep discussions of Wikiversity's scope and goals centralized at Meta. In the future we might utilize a #wikiversity IRC channel as well. If you're interested, you could add your name to the participants list, and see who else is involved.

Wikiversity Core Courses

One way of moving Wikiversity forward is to create a set of core service courses that will meet the needs of existing Wikimedia projects. Since Wikibooks does not want to host Wikiversity, the Wikiversity Core Courses are being developed at the education wikicity. Hopefully, there will be an actual Wikiversity project with its own domain name in the near future.

Experimental Learning Processes

Join or create a debate and/or summarize its salient features at http://wikireason.net/wiki/Forum_Entrance. Please note this is an external site with its own community, social norms, and legal requirements. Please be prudent and wise in paraphrasing, citing, and archival of results locally. Content license requirements may conflict occasionally. Alternatively, methods learned there may be useful within the context of some local learning process or free materials development.
