Wikipedia Education Programs are making a positive impact on Wikipedia, and we are collecting the numbers to prove it. This dashboard will collect and publish numbers from education programs around the world. The idea is to quantify and document the impact that Wikipedia Education Programs have on the projects. For historical program data, please see the Wikipedia Education Program Summary Information page.
Global program data
In order to paint a more accurate picture of educational initiatives and activities around the world, the Wikipedia Education Program aims to collect some basic data about these global programs. The idea is to look at on-wiki impact and tell a data-driven story for education.
While collecting numbers in one central location makes it easy to get a global snapshot of activity around the world, the idea is not to directly compare programs against each other.
In an effort to collect consistent data, the metrics below are matched with their numbered equivalents in the Tracking and Reporting Toolkit (TRT) in the Evaluation portal on Meta wiki.
Στατιστικά
There are two categories of metrics that we track for education programs: education metrics and global metrics. These metrics are a way to gauge program participation, content creation, diversity, and learning.
Γενικές πληροφορίες για το πρόγραμμα
Academic terms around the world vary in duration. Without this information, we cannot accurately compare contributions from place to place.
