Teachers from Healthcare High School in Kroměříž being taught to use Wikipedia

Preparation week in schools is always challenging. It serves mainly to prepare and to prepare teachers for the following school year. So far, the Secondary School of Health in Kroměříž has been editing Wikipedia only in computer science classes. By the decision of the headmistress, training for the whole teaching staff was carried out. The lecturer Pavel Bednařík presented the possibilities of using Wikipedia in teaching individual subjects, introduced the principles of Wikipedia and other projects. In the last part, the teachers tried themselves the possibility to correct a typo, edit information or add a source to selected articles. We believe that Wikipedia will serve as a great tool for teaching not only at the Kromeriz Secondary School. We thank the principal for her organization and the teachers for their interest and involvement.
