SUMMARY:Women in Red – a monthly workshop to add more biographies of women to Wikipedia
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person in the Library (Digital Scholarship Centre on 6th floor) for our Wikipedia Women in Red ‘edit-a-thon’. This event focuses primarily on improving the systematic bias on Wikipedia by adding more articles about notable women missing from the free and open online encyclopedia where only 19.55% of biographies are about women. \nThese are social and supportive workshops where you can meet like-minded colleagues\, learn a new digital skill and feel free to edit on any subject. The first hour is devoted to learning how to edit\, thereafter you are free to apply your new skills by researching and writing new content which you can publish by afternoon’s end. \n\n1:00pm–2:15 pm Intro\, say hello\, discuss work and crash course in Wikipedia\n2:15pm-2:30pm – Choosing the article to work on and short break.\n2:30pm-4:30pm – Research and EDIT!\n4:30pm-5pm – Publish\, event recap and close.\n\nThen you can check how long it takes for your new page to appear in Google’s top ten results! \nNo prior knowledge is required. You?ll learn how to edit Wikipedia and participate in an open knowledge community. Participants will be supported to develop articles of their choice related to notable women missing from Wikipedia. \nWe’ll be there to answer qs and provide support and chat 1pm to 5pm so join us when you can and stay as long as you want to/need to (some people get VERY into writing their articles when they get started). \nOpen to all. Everyone is welcome. \nAs part of the university’s commitment to Athena SWAN\, the University’s Information Services team run this session as a monthly Wikipedia meetup/edit-a-thon to address the systemic bias on Wikipedia where only 19% of biographies are about notable women. \nMore details can be found on the Women in Red page. \nThese are informal drop-in sessions so knowledge of Wikipedia editing is beneficial. However\, Wikipedia editing can be easy to pick up as this 5 minute walkthrough of the new Visual Editor interface demonstrates. (If you have not edited before then please come at the beginning of the session for a quick crash course). \nCome along to learn about how Wikipedia works and create new role models for young and old alike! \nPlease ensure you bring a laptop computer and charger to this workshop in order to take part.  \nBooking via MyEd: https://edin.ac/43yp4SZ\nContact: Ewan McAndrew (Tel: 07867593450\, Email: ewan.mcandrew@ed.ac.uk)

SUMMARY:Open for Good: 10 years of open course development at Edinburgh University
DESCRIPTION:This public webinar will tell the story of how the University of Edinburgh has developed an open course creation workflow that has enabled us to shared 100 free short open course and over 1000 OERs over the last 10 years. \nIn 2013 the University of Edinburgh launched our first Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) in partnership with Coursera\, as part of our strategy to become a world leader in digital education. Ten years later\, we’ve built a diverse portfolio of 100 free short online courses\, covering everything from Astrobiology to Andy Warhol. We’ve developed partnerships with international education providers\, universities and cultural organisations\, and our courses have benefitted 4 million learners worldwide. \nTo ensure our courses are open\, sustainable\, and accessible to all\, openness is embedded in every step of the course creation workflow\, supported by a dedicated Online Course Production Service\, working closely with our OER Service. Underpinned by the core values of open education\, accessibility and quality\, the Online Course Production Service works in collaboration with academic partners to ensure all our open courses align with University strategy and the UN Sustainable Development Agenda. Over 1\,200 Creative Commons licensed media resources from these courses have been shared through our Open Media Bank where they can be accessed by learners in perpetuity\, and downloaded for remixing and repurposing by educators around the world. We also share our workflows and open practice through blog posts\, open pedagogy and learning design resources\, open policies\, and have created two open courses to share our expertise – How to Create an Online Course\, and How to Create Video for Online Courses. \nJoin our team of senior leaders\, learning technologists\, media producers\, instructional designers and open educators to hear the story of how we developed this unique open course development workflow and to discover what we learned along the way. \nSpeakers will include Stuart Nicol\, Head of Educational Design and Engagement; Fiona Buckland\, Online Course Production Service; Geoff Fortescue\, Media Production; Lorna M. Campbell\, OER Service; Lauren Johnston-Smith\, Online Learning Marketing. \nThis Open Education Week webinar is free and open to all.  \nRegister here via Eventbrite.

SUMMARY:Women in Red – a monthly workshop to add more biographies of women to Wikipedia
DESCRIPTION:Join us in our monthly Wikipedia Women in Red ‘edit-a-thon’. This event focuses primarily on improving the systematic bias on Wikipedia by adding more articles about notable women missing from the free and open online encyclopedia where only 19% of biographies are about women. \nThese are social and supportive workshops where you can meet like-minded colleagues\, learn a new digital skill and feel free to edit on any subject. The first hour is devoted to learning how to edit\, thereafter you are free to apply your new skills by researching and writing new content which you can publish by afternoon’s end. \n\n1:00pm–2:15 pm Intro\, say hello\, discuss work and crash course in Wikipedia\n2:15pm-2:30pm – Choosing the article to work on and short break.\n2:30pm-4:30pm – Research and EDIT!\n4:30pm-5pm – Publish\, event recap and close.\n\nThen you can check how long it takes for your new page to appear in Google’s top ten results! \nNo prior knowledge is required. You’ll learn how to edit Wikipedia and participate in an open knowledge community. Participants will be supported to develop articles of their choice related to notable women missing from Wikipedia. \nWe’ll be there to answer questions and provide support and chat from 1pm to 5pm\, so join us when you can and stay as long as you want to/need to (some people get VERY into writing their articles when they get started). \nOpen to all. Everyone is welcome. \nAs part of the university’s commitment to Athena SWAN\, the University’s Information Services team run this session as a monthly Wikipedia meetup/edit-a-thon to address the systemic bias on Wikipedia where only 19% of biographies are about notable women. \nMore details can be found on the Women in Red page. \nThese are informal drop-in sessions so knowledge of Wikipedia editing is beneficial. However\, Wikipedia editing can be easy to pick up as this 5 minute walkthrough of the new Visual Editor interface demonstrates. (If you have not edited before then please come at the beginning of the session for a quick crash course). \nCome along to learn about how Wikipedia works and create new role models for young and old alike! \nNB: Want to host a ‘Women in Red’ event local to your part of the university? Drop me an email: ewan.mcandrew@ed.ac.uk \nPlease ensure you are using a laptop or desktop computer for this online workshop in order to take part.  \nBookings via MyEd: https://edin.ac/3tjorNi
