Some time ago I did a curriculum development exercise on Wikiversity
which uses the same platform as WikiEducator (MediaWiki).
In addition to the wiki we used a mailing list and held some face to
face workshops.
We came up with a "curriculum framework".
Each separate institution would then make their own specific
curriculum potentially using some of the learning resources.
In the end we did not have any institutions using and contributing to
the learning resources.
The key is to involve people with a real need to collaborate and share
on supported projects on an agreed platform (such as WikiEducator).
Anyway, the approach is interesting (portal with Educator Resources,
Guidelines for Editors and How to Get Involved).
Feel free to use and adapt the ideas:
Social Entrepreneurship Portal:

Hope that helps
Kim

Leo,I not sure how much I can help, but next semester (beginning in November) I am teaching a course to Business Chinese students here in Thailand. The course (Eastern Civilization) is taught in English, but almost all the students are Thai. So if there is any way we can to help give me a shout.Regards,John

Dear Leo,
Thank you for your initiatives. I last moth I was in South Korea for a Fellowship programme. Currently, I am the faculty of Commerce & Management at Netaji Subhas Open University, India. I have developed the course curricula for undergraduate and post graduate course and other short term term skill development courses for the University.
We may also help you in developing the curricula for chinese people.
Thanking you,
With regards,
Anirban

I noticed your emphasis on Elephant conservation which I agree is a
good unifying program.
I have sketched an advertising campaign for what we might call the
Global U (global university) with saving elephants a theme.[1] Global
U is a metaphor for this planet we share. Spaceship Earth is another
such metaphor. I think if we imagine ourselves sharing a giant
spherical university campus, as students and faculty, we might work
together better, while improving the curriculum.
Elephants represent memory, wisdom... I'm sure many traditions in
China have well-developed symbolism. In the Hindu tradition, we have
Ganesh.[2]
When I search on "elephants" in Wikieducator I find those essays by
young people in Israel. They were apparently assigned the task of
creating Wiki pages and reviewed a story of how elephants seemed to
know in advance about the tsunami in Southeast / South Asia in 2004.
The autobiographical content is also interesting.
Pulling together lore (stories, both true and fictional) about
elephants from many cultures, exploring elephant imagery in different
civilizations, could well serve to anchor an excellent curriculum for
business managers who also see themselves as diplomats and world-aware
problem solvers (as "global university students" in other words).
In the world of cyber-skills, using geographic information systems to
identify ecosystems where elephants still thrive (there are not many)
will help build skills and awareness.
Thank you for your work,

PS: I was in China in the early 1970s and treasure the memories. I
was a much younger man then.

to get back there, as well as to China)

It was projected for a province in Canada however the project leader
giving the talk did not end up managing what he was sketching.
I'm guessing this design is still on the drawing boards, still a
little ahead of its time, but maybe some communities are already
implementing it?
Basic idea: passive (non-intrusive) home monitoring, raising "call
me" flags with supervisory staff in the case of software-detected
exceptions.
