[edit] What I'm up to at Wikiversity and Why?
I'm looking through all the articles in the main name space to find examples of learning activities. The main reason I began this project was to find examples of good practice that could be shared with the rest of Wikiversity. However as the advert says "It's not ready yet!" so the project has ended up identifying mainly learning activities that need to be developed further. I feel this is still useful as it makes finding these pages for further development much easier. This journey through the Wikiversity is also providing me with a good over view of were we are up to. I've found a number of pages that have no or very little content. I've added the {{main welcome}}, {{welcome and expand}} and the {{Stub}} templates to these pages. This will make finding these pages in the future easier. This will be useful when there are clear policies in place about what to do with these types of pages. I'm not entirely clear when to use which template. I only use {{main welcome}} on pages with no content. I tend to use {{Stub}} for pages that I think will become important to Wikiversity in the future and {{welcome and expand}} for the rest. The majority of the pages I've seen either provide information on various topics or provide guides on how to do various things. I've not put these into any category as personally I think most of them would be better off as a Wikipedia or Wikibooks entries. There are quite a few pages that are project outlines I haven't added these to the learning activities category or those that provide lesson plans and other materials to help with planning learning.Mystictim 17:10, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Mystictim's Learning to learn a wiki way reflective blog
[edit] 16:02, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
I've been struggling with this project for quite some time now. I seem to be just rearranging existing content, moving deckchairs around on the proverbial ship. Or to mix some metaphores I can imagine that it's like climbing a mountain. From a distance its clear where the peak is but up close its just a shear cliff with no obvious route to follow.
[edit] First entry 20:32, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
This is the first entry on my learning blog. I've done quite a bit of work today at Wikiversity. Most of it has been structural and not much to do with learning. I want to keep this blog as part of improving my own practice as both a learner and a learning facilitator. I'm going to use it as part of being a reflective practitioner. This will mean providing descriptive accounts of specific experiences from my point of view. The next step will be to write down how this experience made me feel and whether I'd want to repeat it. The next stage is to reflect and record why I had these feelings. The next stage is to record how I think I could modify this experience. The final stage is to record the outcome of repeating this modified experience.
