ଶିକ୍ଷା/ରିଡିଙ୍ଗ ଉଇକିପିଡ଼ିଆ ଇନ୍ ଦି କ୍ଲାସରୁମ/ଟିଓଟି
From 2021 to 2023, Wikimedians, mission-aligned organizations, and interested individuals were invited to enroll in the Training of Trainers (ToT) program to become Certified Trainers of "Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom" and active agents of change in their local education sectors. By the end of the ToT, three cohorts of participants were certified to lead training of the "Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom" in partnership with local mission-aligned institutions. They're able to adapt & implement the "Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom" program to meaningfully respond to their local contexts and provide a high quality learning experience for secondary school teachers to learn how to use Wikipedia as a pedagogical tool.

General information
The Training of Trainers program is a fully online learning experience comprised of three modules:
- Learn: Deep-diving into the Reading Wikipedia in the Classroom curriculum as a learner, research work for localization and opportunities in the local education sector.
- Teach: Facilitation techniques, localized training structure, defining a training model that fits.
- Plan: Conducting a needs assessment, establishing partnerships and outreach, budget planning, risk assessment, monitoring and evaluation plans.
The ToT is developed fully online on WikiLearn - an Open edX learning platform for the Wikimedia movement. The program includes a combination of asynchronous activities, synchronous working sessions, optional tutoring hours, and a set of ready-made resources for the program implementation. The ToT is facilitated by members of the Education team at the Wikimedia Foundation with the support of international guest speakers who are experts in their field - including Certified Trainers who are leading local implementations of the program.
The ToT is delivered in English and it requires a commitment of 6 hours per week during 9 weeks. Active participation involves interacting in online forums, completing formative assignments, attending 3 mandatory synchronous sessions, and submitting a final assignment.
We select 25 highly motivated applicants to be part of each cohort. See below for guidance on your application.
