<Title>Call for Applications: New pilot with Wiki Education</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><span>Announcing call for applications for new pilot with Wiki Education to learn how to contribute to Wikipedia.</span></div>
    <div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>We are pleased to announce Wikipedia Fellows, an interdisciplinary project led by Wiki Education to train academic scholars to contribute to Wikipedia. This pilot is a key component of their effort to empower the public to participate fully as citizens by accessing important academic knowledge via Wikipedia.  Read more about the Wikipedia Fellows program.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div> Our Wikipedia Fellows will join members from two other academic associations in a 3-month pilot, from January to April 2018. Participants will learn to contribute to Wikipedia, receiving guidance and support as they make contributions to important topics in their areas of expertise.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><ul>
    <li>No experience with Wikipedia is required.</li>
    <li>Participants are asked to commit 3 hours/week, including training and group meetings.</li>
    <li>Wiki Education will provide training, guidance, and support throughout the process, using video conferences and Slack, a free cloud-based chat/collaboration service.</li>
    <li>Participants will learn how to make significant contributions to at least two Wikipedia articles by the end of the program.</li>
    <li>Informal support will remain available after the end of the pilot.</li>
    <li>Fellows will fill out short surveys in the beginning and end of the program, and Wiki Education asks them to write one reflective blog post (on wikiedu.org) about their experience.</li>
    </ul></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>For more information, visit <a href="http://wikiedu.org/wikipedia-fellows/">http://wikiedu.org/wikipedia-fellows/</a> or email <a href="mailto:wikipediafellows@wikiedu.org">wikipediafellows@wikiedu.org</a>. If you're interested in participating, please fill out the <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSesfEZNjIL3ricPGB3MffcMeRwupWZoz14le4q8kh0OTHoRcA/viewform" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Wikipedia Fellows application here</a>. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Wiki Education's Educational Partnerships Manager, Jami Mathewson, will attend the annual meeting in Baltimore, where she'll be available to answer questions about this pilot. </div>
