Case Study: See the Concept in Action
Marguerite is taking Professor Carlton’s class and she sees the inclusion of contributing to Wikipedia in the syllabus he hands out. She knows she’ll be graded on the contributions she makes to Wikipedia as well as the other class assignments.
She learns that there will be Wikipedia Ambassadors to support her by explaining the basics and being there to answer questions along the way.
She’s excited about learning more about Wikipedia, how articles are actually created, who’s in the community and having an opportunity to be a contributor herself.
