[edit] Learning materials and learning projects

Wikiversity has adopted the "learning by doing" model for education. Lessons should center on learning activities for Wikiversity participants. The Center for Wiki Business Ventures is functionally like a department. Learning materials and learning projects can be used by multiple departments. Cooperate with other departments that use the same learning resource.
