SUMMARY:Beyond the Classroom: Student editors improve Wikipedia (Wiki Education Speaker Series)
DESCRIPTION:At the center of Wiki Education’s work are the thousands of postsecondary students across the United States and Canada we support each term. Tasked with improving Wikipedia as part of their coursework but often new to editing\, the students work through Wiki Education’s series of trainings and exercises to successfully contribute to thousands of articles across disciplines\, filling in some of Wikipedia’s knowledge equity gaps and improving historically underrepresented topic areas. In this panel\, four students will share reflections from their Wikipedia assignments\, including their perspectives on learning to edit WIkipedia\, create public-facing scholarship\, and contribute to the largest\, most read encyclopedia in the world. \nPanelists: \n\n\n\nEkaterina Schiavone Hennighausen\, George Washington University\nJoseph Sugalski\, University of Notre Dame\nJianan Li\, Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California\, Los Angeles\nJohnny Shanahan\, North Carolina Central University- School of Library and Information Science\n\n\n\nThis edition of the Wiki Education Speaker Series is hosted by Wiki Education’s Brianda Felix\, who first edited Wikipedia as an assignment during her undergraduate studies at UCLA. Brianda now supports instructors and students with their own Wikipedia assignments as one of our Wikipedia Experts. \nJoin Wiki Education as we bring together experts in Wikimedia and open knowledge for lively discussions of topics relevant to our communities. Wiki Education hosts regular\, Zoom-based conversations\, and you’re encouraged to take part! Sign up for any topics that are of interest to you\, and join as our panelists share their thoughts\, moderated by a Wiki Education staff member.

SUMMARY:Persistence & Progress: Confronting Wikipedia’s gender imbalance (Wiki Education)
DESCRIPTION:As the world’s go-to encyclopedia\, Wikipedia’s content should reflect the diversity of the real world\, but in areas like gender representation\, it can still fall short.
