 | This page is currently inactive and is retained for historical reference. Communicate OER handed over efforts to the now defunct WikiProject Open. See the archived online WIKISOO class for more on learning to edit Wikipedia yourself. It was last substantively updated in 2014. |
Meetings, webinars and editing sessions
We offered one-hour editing sessions each week from January-March 2013; these later dovetailed with our School of Open class on Writing Wikipedia articles (through September 2013). The best way to engage with the project now is to join the Communicate OER email list and/or add yourself to our Team page to be notified about upcoming meetings and ongoing project work.
How to connect to meetings and seminars
For all events and meeting, we use Blackboard Collaborate, a tool that integrates video conferencing, screen sharing, and other features. Please CLICK HERE about 10 minutes prior to the beginning of the session, to allow time to connect. The software requires Java, and will run on Mac, Windows, or Linux.
