Wikipedia Barn Raising in Oakland, July 19. Focus: OER

by Pete Forsyth

Hi Bay Area wikifolk! Please join us for a "Wikipedia Barn Raising" event focusing on Open Educational Resources (OER). The Barn Raising will happen on Saturday July 19th, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Pacific Time, at the Oakland Impact Hub, at 2323 Broadway (near the 19th St. BART station). Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Since 2012, we've been working to strengthen Wikipedia's coverage of OER and related topics. We've worked to build an international community around this goal at conferences, through our online "Writing Wikipedia Articles" (WIKISOO) course, and through the formation of WikiProject Open. At the Barn Raising, we will focus on improving high-priority Wikipedia articles, and consider ways to strengthen WikiProject Open as a resource for staying connected, learning, and working together. We'll also welcome online participants from around the world, with collaboration tools and scheduled video check-ins. Registration link: Barn Raising registration form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1RgXfFfjo0Zjd1nu1NAX-cDQPmWa8-GWvt59n87JwDv…> Event page: WikiProject Open Barn Raising <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Open_Barn_Raising_2014> We hope to see you there, online or in person! Best regards Sara Frank Bristow Pete Forsyth Communicate OER/WikiProject Open Communicate OER is funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation

We're not in competition. Each of us is providing a resource to the others. For instance, I'd like to think of this less like "Sudo is paying for this space so it's ours and you can't have it" and more like "this space makes the most sense for our neighborhood's hackerspace and so we're taking responsibility for building and maintaining our neighborhood's hackerspace." And the best way to know what we all need is to have open, functioning channels of communication with each other. :)

http://m.spp.sagepub.com/content/5/6/698?etoc&utm_content=buffer4de48&utm_m… Effects of Avatar Race in Violent Video Games on Racial Attitudes and Aggression Authors Abstract The media often link Black characters and violence. This is especially true in video games, in which Black male characters are virtually always violent. This research tested the effects of playing a violent game as a Black (vs. White) avatar on racial stereotypes and aggression. In Experiment 1, White participants (N = 126) who played a violent video game as a Black avatar displayed stronger implicit and explicit negative attitudes toward Blacks than did participants who played a violent video game as a White avatar or a nonviolent game as a Black or White avatar. In Experiment 2, White participants (N = 141) who played a violent video game as a Black (vs. White) avatar displayed stronger implicit attitudes linking Blacks to weapons. Implicit attitudes, in turn, related to subsequent aggression. Black violent video game avatars not only make players more aggressive than do White avatars, they also reinforce stereotypes that Blacks are violent. violent video games implicit racism prejudice African American Black aggression Article Notes Declaration of Conflicting Interests The author(s) declared no potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article. Funding The author(s) received no financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article. © The Author(s) 2014 Sent from my iPhone

Yes yes yes! > ventilation and dust collection will require attention. Agreed. I can't quite tell whether an exhaust system already exists, but we need to figure one out ASAP. It gets very hot, and I fear before long it will get smelly...

There are two shelves in the western corner, which are marked: "ALL OTHER BOOKS but the books on these shelves are available". The landlords are going to take those in a few days. All others are, indeed, abandoned. Tonight we designated the basement's "library/office" rooms as the place where all books go, and moved all the books we could find there (except those marked for BAPS). > Where to put the pews and bookshelves currently residing in the cafe / > bookstore? We tried setting up one of those bookshelves in the basement. They are slightly too tall. Perhaps they might fit after we remove those ceiling panels. I still think the pews would be great up on the mezzanine.
