FREE online workshops

From WikifiedSchools

I am very excited to announce that this summer I will be launching a small collection of Wikified Schools eWorkshops to help educators begin to use wikis in their work. This idea started with local interest from a small group of people with whom I work, and after some planning and brainstorming I have decided to run the workshops completely online (asynchronously) using Moodle. I will be offering three different workshops, two of which will be free and open to anyone, anywhere, and one which will be available at a very low cost to anyone, anywhere.

I will post more detailed information later, along with instructions on how to join the workshops. For now I will share some basic info and I would be very happy if you would complete the form below to let me know that you are interested, which workshop you might be interested in, and your email address so I can notify you with additional information and provide you with a reminder as the workshop dates get closer.

Workshops Offered:

Wikified Schools “Light” (Self-Paced)
Available for self-enrollment June 2009
Cost: FREE

Wikified Schools “Light” Facilitated
Two-week facilitated workshop
Session 1: June 1 -14, 2009
Session 2: July 13 - 26, 2009
Cost: FREE

Wikified Schools BootCamp
Four-week facilitated workshop
July 13 - August 9, 2009
Cost: $15.00 per person

“Facilitated” means that I will be facilitating the work daily by posting messages in the forum, looking at participant postings/work, and providing feedback on a regular basis.

“Self-Paced” will be structured for participants to learn and complete tasks on their own, at their own pace, with no facilitator guidance.

At this point in time, all of the workshops are targeted mostly to beginners or intermediate wiki users, but an advanced eWorkshop will be developed in the near future based on the level of interest.
