Description of activities and learning
editAll these projects and activities are part of the Shared Knowledge's Annual Plan. This section will describe how the activities progressed during the Second quarter.
Education & Science Program
edit1. Professors Mentorship
- Goals met by this activity
According to our metrics this program for the entire year should have at least 15 total participants. Nine participants got involved in this quarter. Thus, of all four quarters, 12 different people were part of it and 80% of the total participants annual quota is achieved. There were six new participants among these nine people of the Q4. These six people make up all the new participants of 2023 and the success is 60% (least 10 new people were planned). According to our total pages quota, in 2023 at least 40 pages in total should be covered. In Q4, 8 content pages were covered, and that is 88 TCP for the whole year which translates to 220% progress.
2. Students Mentorship
- Goals met by this activity
One reccuring educational institution was included in this quarter. It was the Institute of Geography which managed to coordinate and gather students for the workshops. The same engagement was done, this time by a new collaborating institution - the Mirče Acev Elementary School. A total of 44 people were participants on the two events and overall in the quarter. The accumulated participants of all year of 2023 88 people (83.8% progress, according to the projected 105 annual participants). New people in the quarter were 33, summing the overall of 66 people in all four quarters, out of planned 100 and that's 66% progress. The number of made content pages in Q4 in 106. Combined with the TCP metric for the whole year, the total number is 151, while the projected number is 400 (37.7% achievement).

A total of 31 people were part of the edit-a-thons in Q4. During the entire 2023, 40 people made the total participants number, which makes 71.4% progress according to the planned TP metric (56). 36 people were new at all the edit-a-thons. That represents 75% progress in 2023 (planned 48 people). The projected total content pages metric (TCP) is 288 and this quarter has realized 130, 155 in total in all the quarters of 2023.
