EduWiki Conference 2014 is the third annual conference organised by Wikimedia UK focusing on Education projects.
This is a one-day event raising awareness of the educational possibilities of Wikipedia and sister projects, and developing Wikimedia UK's academic engagement. In light of the fact that Wikimania 2014 drew substantial resources away from the EduWiki conference, this year's event is taking the form of a symposium bringing together all those in the Education sector who have benefited directly from WMUK support over the years. Aside from presentations about case studies from across the UK, this event also offers an opportunity for others across the education sector to attend workshops for Educators and/or Campus Ambassadors, providing support for those using Wikipedia as a teaching platform.
Schedule
The main theme for EduWiki 2014 is ensuring more meaningful engagement with Wikimedia in Education across the UK.
