College Credit for Citizendium Articles
Garrett pointed me to a Citizendium press release about college credit for writing their articles as an incentive to contribute to a rival project to Wikipedia.
"Students can take responsibility for their work for course credits, and teachers grade the finished work based on the quality of the final article produced from each student’s input.
But students not only get to earn grade credits, they add to the global store of knowledge as they earn their written course assignment credits. By collaborating with the rapidly growing Citizendium (CZ) community of expert and non-expert authors, they can have their essays become a lasting article in the Citizendium."
