Two volunteers (Reke, Supaplex) are working on this project.

Wikipedia volunteers will have lecture or workshop session for the whole 12 weeks, each session last for 3 hours. We will analyze Wikipedia article (anatomy of WIkipedia?), use computer room for practice, also review learners' output. Three volunteers (Reke, Shangkuanlc, and Mingwangx) are working on this project.
    • The interpretation of cultural assets NTU campus practicum course design introduced on the detailed course content, records, refer to the Wikipedia page on the course is designed. Seven participants. September 13, 2012 2013 January 3, once a week, three hours.
    • Volunteer-training-workshop for a government sponsored education-wiki platform, not sure how many students will participate. Its topic is mainly about education related articles and the education history and development in Taiwan. Still in progress. One volunteer (Reke) is working on this project.
    • Also, to translate online training articles cost 4 to 12 hours per week for 1 volunteer.
    • With Center for Aboriginal Studies , Wikimedia Taiwan is establishing an introductory course in Ethnology. Forty eight students, most of them are freshmen from the Department of Ethnology at National Chen-Chi University, will be editing articles on Chinese Wikipedia between March and June 2015. Articles are about cultural and ethno-linguistic groups world-wide. Each student is designated an article about a different ethnicity. At the end of the semester, each of the students will complete the translation of an article about their assigned ethno-linguistic group. Reke Wang will be teaching the students about the culture of Wikipedia so that they can communicate with the community and basic editing skills needed for translating articles. He will also be providing online support to the students during the academic term. The course has ended and a brief report is on Wikimedia Blog
