Generating participant interest

edit

This section will give you ideas for how to find people to participate in the program you have planned and importantly, how to motivate participants to contribute high quality content to Wikimedia projects.

  • Motivate students in a variety of different education programs using strategies that have worked for other program leaders.
  • Use social media to find course participants and get volunteers involved: [ create red link for Using social media for education programs
  • Focus on working with the most promising participants if you do not have enough resources to support everyone who wants to participate in your course.
