Lesson plans and tutorials for in-person training
[edit]Art+Feminism Beginner and Advanced Training Slides
[edit]We have developed a set of 7 slide presentations on editing in Wikipedia. Five of them correspond to the basic level and 2 of them to the advanced level. You can use them to train yourself in Wikipedia editing, as well as to provide training sessions to your event attendees. There are some sections for collaborative work built-in. If you're running a large group session, you may want to modify these slides to cut these sections out. You'll also find some helpful content in the Notes sections.
This set of slides is also available in Spanish and Portuguese. Previous Art+Feminism slide presentations are available in Italian and Chinese.
