Welcome to the Wikiversity learning project about Learning Resources. "Learning resource" is the general term for the educational content of Wikiversity. Wikiversity has many types of learning resources as described in detail below. Wikiversity does not host encyclopedia articles, text books, or other types of content that are hosted by other Wikimedia Foundation wiki projects (see Wikimedia and What Wikiversity is not).

[edit] Types of Learning Resources

Wikiversity provides learning resources for all age groups and all subject areas. Wikiversity learning resources can be divided into:

1. learning projects that support the Wikiversity e-learning model of active learning, and
   
2. more static learning materials that can be read at this website or downloaded for use outside of Wikiversity.

[edit] Learning projects

Learning projects guide active learners to exercises and collaborative learning projects. See: Portal:Learning Projects.

[edit] Research projects

Research projects are a special type of Wikiversity learning project that allows participants to move beyond areas of existing knowledge and into exploration of the unknown. See Portal:Research.

[edit] Learning materials

Learning materials can be audio and video files, text files and are generally static learning objects that can be used either by Wikiversity participants or downloaded for use at bricks-and-mortar educational institutions.

[edit] Finding Wikiversity Learning resources

Portals. Every Wikiversity learning resource should be linked to by at least one portal page. You can browse the Wikiversity portals:

Categories. Every Wikiversity learning resource should be in at least one Category. You can browse Wikiversity by category. See: Category:Content.

Search. Try using the search feature to find learning resources. See: Wikiversity:Searching.

[edit] Your turn

Wikiversity has many learning resources that are on hard to find pages. You can help make sure that every learning resource has a link to it from at least one portal page. Particularly exciting learning resources should become featured content on portals or the Main Page.

When existing portals become too crowded you can make new portals.
