Subject: Run a Wikipedia assignment this fall and help your students change the world one word at a time!


Empower your students to make a difference this fall! Run a Wikipedia
assignment this coming academic year, and help your students to
develop and hone critical media literacy skills, become a responsible
digital citizen, and tackle misinformation all in one project!

There are a multitude of ways your students can ensure that Wikipedia
has the most up-to-date coverage of Linguistics - from writing about
endangered languages and cultures to linguistic theories and concepts
to ensuring that all those who have made contributions to the field
are represented. Join the thousands of students who have already added
over two million words to Wikipedia as a course assignment: https://da
shboard.wikiedu.org/campaigns/Linguistic_Society_of_America/overview

Sign up to attend one of our upcoming workshops on how to teach with
Wikipedia here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZApdeCupzwtE
tNVaIWYtWTV6d-frza2C89B#/registration

Also be sure to visit teach.wikiedu.org to find out how you can get
started for the Fall 2023 term!

Wiki Education's support is fully funded, and there are no fees to
participate. The program is open to post-secondary institutions in the
U.S. and Canada.

I hope you'll join us in this critical work to make Wikipedia a more
accurate, accessible  and equitable space for all!
