In the Touro College Physical Therapy Wiki Editing Party students will share information from their studies in Wikipedia articles! Learn the material by teaching it through publication in Wikipedia! Share the information with your community and the broader online world! Represent physical therapy in health publications! Have fun!
2024 is the 8th anniversary of Touro classroom Wikipedia editing and also the longest running Wikipedia classroom editing program in health. Let's do it!
The event will start with a presentation which gives the Wikipedia community perspective on the following:
Following the presentation, anyone may ask any question about Wikipedia to get answers or demonstrations. Following this, it will be time for a Wikipedia "editathon", which is an event in which a group of people edit together. Desktop view, not mobile access, is preferred for this exercise, but come regardless. At the editathon, this is the goal:
Hopefully everyone at the event will add at least 1-3 sentences in the time we have. After making additions, since Wikipedia is public, participants will review the accuracy and quality of classmate's edits. As we leave, participants will be invited to check back on Wikipedia after some time (3-7 days) to see if there is any online community response to anyone's contributions.
After some months, the class will get a report on the number of pageviews to the Wikipedia articles which the class edited. At any time after the event anyone may visit the tracking dashboard to check readership, a measurement of content added, and other statistics.
None of this is required, but if you like, use Wikipedia's online support services.
The University of Virginia is providing the presentation at this event. Other organizations supporting Wikipedia outreach to health classes in New York include the following:
All of these organizations endorse this classroom outreach. The nature of the support is as follows -
