Summary

Digital skills development takes place across a full range of educational contexts. We mapped the opportunities for WMUK to engage in this sector. There are opportunities for outreach and growth. This is true at all standard skill levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced.

We mapped the real experience of Wikimedia users and contributors against various learning levels and outcomes described by the DCMS, OECD and others. We concluded that it is possible to assign digital skill development derived from Wiki projects to certain standard digital skill classifications.

Skills gained and applied in our context include computer and internet literacy, data and information literacy, content creation skills, collaboration skills, and advanced IT skills.
