"When the pupil is ready to learn, a teacher will appear." — Zen proverb (discuss)

Wikiversity is a Wikimedia Foundation project devoted to learning resources, learning projects, and research for use in all levels, types, and styles of education from pre-school to university, including professional training and informal learning. We invite teachers, students, and researchers to join us in creating open educational resources and collaborative learning communities. To learn more about Wikiversity, try a guided tour, learn about adding content, or start editing now.

Today's Featured Project
A resource for scholars and others interested in media literacy. The materials were originally developed by graduate students enrolled in a course taught by Professor Renee Hobbs at Temple University's School of Communication and Theater, and has been further developed by succeeding versions of the same course. The course looks at media literacy in a wide context, and is of relevance to secondary education, tertiary education, research and education outside the formal sector.

For real-time advice or assistance, you can join our Wikiversity's IRC channel, or our mailing list, or add learner questions on our help desk. The community portal is a listing of notices, projects, activities, guidelines and resources, and learn more about us through the history of Wikiversity.
A Map of the Internet
Internet map 1024.jpg
This is a representation of a small part of the internet created by following connections between networks. Colour-coding represents the type/ownership of network and distance represents signal travelling time at the point of time the representation was created. The internet cannot actually be navigated using such "maps", but such maps can be used to convey a sense of its hardware organisation. Click on the image for a full size version which you can freely re-use and modify. Print it and use it for your lessons, integrate it into your pages on Wikiversity, or use it in other learning resources and websites. Use the links below to find more images like this one.

At Wikiversity we are committed both to conventional learning patterns and resources, and to innovation and experimentation. Wikiversity is open to reconceptualising how web education can occur and how open educational resources can be made, and we are open to new ideas about the use of the Mediawiki environment for learning and research. Check out and help develop our learning projects and how learning works on Wikiversity, see how Wikiversity can help you, and explore how to get involved and start adding content.
