I will probably talk about Wikipedia for three lectures during a course "Popularization of science" at Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague. Not sure what I will talk about exactly, but definitely something about the basic principles and philosophy of Wikipedia, community, content creation, maybe dispute resolution. In fact I would love if you added some more topics to focus on.

 

It is not a MOOC, though, if that is what you wanted to ask about: just a regular old-school course at university :-)

 

thanks

I know that Dr. Obar taught a course on Wikipedia administrator selection.
Copied him in case he's not on the list (though I can't imagine why not).

Seems like a worthwhile idea. Who, if anyone, has taught courses about
Wikipedia in the past?

I am, in fact, developing one myself, I am currently working on a draft
for Prezi lectures about Wikipedia (they are licensed under CC-BY-SA,
and I'd be happy to share them with you if you'd be interested).
