Hi! You're getting this message because you are or have been a
Knowledge Ambassador. A new term is beginning for the United States and Canada Education Programs, and I wanted to give you an update on some important new information if you're interested in continuing your work this term as a Knowledge

I was wondering about the missing three. I have watch listed the seven proposed sandboxes, and will keep an eye on their contributions. One has already uploaded an image on commons. Dealing with images is one of the tougher things to do here. I am hoping that the article choices will avoid speedy

Haha. Yeah, the username is rather confusing for most, but it's not an easy username to find, so it's okay for me. Haha. Anyways, I was able to put up 7 students into the course page, though I'm told that there should be 10 total. I'll try to get either the other Campus ambassador, or myself to see

Hello Kristi, I hope that the plate tectonics class is a good one for you as an ambassador. It is good that you told me your name otherwise I would have trouble remembering "Mandu" when I read "만두". I will be checking out the work of the students and will help them with comments. So I will be keen

As this is the first term we have used the extension, we know there will be some bugs, and we know the feature set is not as rich as it could be. (A big wave of improvements is already in the pipeline. And if you know MediaWiki and could help with code review, we'd love to have your help!) Please

Please go through the training if you feel like you need a refresher on how a typical class is supposed to go and where the
Ambassadors fit in, or if you want to review and help improve it. If there's something you'd like to see added, or other suggestions you have for it, feel free to edit the

You may have heard a reference to a transition the education program is going through. This is the last term that the
Wikimedia Foundation will directly run the U.S. and Canada programs; beginning in June, a proposed thematic organization is likely to take over organizing the program. You can

I put in user7 template to get quick links to the contributions and talk page, so that we can easily see activity. Some student(s) have also uploaded images to commons. There are a whole series of user templates with different numbers after then to link to user related pages.

whenever you see excellent work from students or if you have great examples from past semesters. And, as always, let students (and other editors!) know when they do things well; a little WikiLove goes a long way!

and I'm noticing a flurry of stuff being added in the last couple of days. I suspect there'll be a lot more to come. It's probably better wait until the deadline has well and truly passed before reviewing. Best,

In the past, the
Education Program has had a pretty fragmented set of communication channels. We're trying to fix that. These are the recommended places to discuss and stay up-to-date on the education program:

and an extra project within her LSU biology course. I've gotten her set up to begin her project and told her we would both be available for support during the semester. Thanks for all your great work!

Great to know! Thanks for all your help Graeme; our LSU students appreciate it as do our onsite Campus
Ambassadors who are working to keep up with the 7 WP courses we have going this semester!
