I would also like to hear about people's experiences with assigning projects that involve creating/editing WP content.
To that end, there is a WP page dedicated to its use in school projects: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:School_and_university_projects>

aoir people,
has anyone had any experience with assigning students the task of altering, improving, and tweaking their university page on wikipedia? in other words, has anyone assigned their college/university wikipedia page as a site of construction for a class? if so, i'm curious to hear any anecdotes, experiences, best-practices, relevant readings, and anything else you wish to share.
