University level courses which extend into graduate level work, then into least publishable units might be fun to create.

Biosynthesis of a human protein

[edit | edit source]

Biosynthesis of a human protein.

A course page using the above course title should suffice with Category:Courses.

Consider setting aside a list or catalog of the specific principles of biosynthesis. These can be included as summaries. Or, a supplemental lecture on Principles of biosynthesis.

This course would need about 48 lectures, 16 quiz sections, 16 labs, maybe 2-3 hourly exams, a midterm, and a final exam. Lectures usually last about one hour. Time a verbal presentation of one page to get a feel for kb level of information. Maximum page size on Wikipedia is about 150 kb. Problem sets needed at progressively greater difficulty are around 16.

Two fields may supply material: Gene transcription and Phosphate biochemistry.

Elements of terminology

[edit | edit source]

Perhaps as an alternative method of developing this course, a series of lectures already existing can be the current course, with quizzes for each based on currently presented knowledge. As more lectures/articles are added further course development may also be added.

Principles of radiation astronomy

[edit | edit source]

The principles

[edit | edit source]

1. Each lecture should be designed to flow from elementary principles to advanced principles.

2. Having lecture subtopics in alphabetical order helps in the writing, but the final lecture should follow step 1.

3. A course page using the above course title should suffice with Category:Courses. Check naming convention. Title of course may have to be changed to Principles of radiation astronomy.

4. Consider setting aside a list or catalog of the specific principles of radiation astronomy. These can be included in Mathematical astronomy, Astrophysics, Astrochemistry, and Theoretical radiation astronomy as summaries. Or, a supplemental lecture on Empirical radiation astronomy.

"Principles of radiation astronomy is a college-level unit of study. The unit focuses on the fundamental concepts behind using radiation as an astronomical probe. Learn how to combine observation with theory for a better understanding of the universe. Course materials and activities begin at the secondary level, include undergraduate college-level, and take you into state-of-the-art research, some on-going at Wikiversity."

"The course is presented by Marshallsumter and other editors and educators at Wikiversity. I have an active interest in Astronomy and ongoing original research at Wikiversity in the field. Presenting this course benefits the research by establishing the state-of-the-art, or state-of-the-science, at the cutting edge. I can be reached at my discussion page."

And, at mid-month here: http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education_Portal/Newsletter.

Another advertising possibility is "Every month a newsletter is published about the projects with Wikimedians and GLAMs, called This Month in GLAM. I think it would be nice if the newsletter could pay attention to projects with Universities and more. Be welcome to write something!"

"Learning materials for each of the 48 lectures, 16 laboratories, and 16 quiz sections are available on the English Wikiversity, along with details about quizzes and major examinations."

"The course is dynamic in that some resources are under development while other portions are fully ready for use. Major examinations will be available for closed-session proficiencies at any major university, subject to approval by respective advisory committees."
