Welcome to the EduTech Wiki

This place is about Educational Technology and related fields. A particular focus is put on (technology-enhanced) project-oriented and activity-based pedagogies.

Actually there are 1,965 articles on this wiki. You can also find a nice visualisation of the wiki (different kind of relationships and informations are displayed. Attention: it requires Java Runtime Environment.

Authors and status

• This Wiki is really under construction which means that the overall organization is still fairly unstable and that most articles seriously lack content, depth, style, authority (or all four together). Since we first would like to reach a certain level of stability we don't yet actively encourage authors outside TECFA to participate.
• Please make sure to read the editing rules, help etc.
• If you are new to wiki technology, you can make some tests in our SandBox
• Maintenance categories: under construction, stubs, incomplete.

News:

• Interested in studying educational technology ? Join our Master of Science in Learning and Teaching Technologies (you need to understand french).
• For Authors: I added 4 templates to categorize articles and three for inline comments. Have a look at the template demo page. Note: This also implies that we have to remove a lot of "under construction" tags. - DSchneider 21:31, 17 May 2006 (MEST)
• We also will develop a model for authorship (unlike the Wikipedias). However, for technical reasons this will have to wait until Mediawiki 1.7 is released (see also the Copyright notice).
