Cute Swimming Sayings

. BEFORE

is an educational platform, online, free of charge, with a philosophy wiki.
Here you can create learning projects at any level of education, participate in group learning, create learning content such as exams, practical exercises, discussion forums, about doubts on the subjects you study ...

What differentiates a university conventional? Much
:
* do not have to pay anything to use. Although the Wikimedia Foundation that supports, encourages you to make voluntary financial donations to support the project.
* not receive financial compensation for the tasks you perform in it. All contributors are volunteers.
* We have no physical headquarters. Because our media is the Internet and the servers that store information. Wikiversity
* The emphasis is on learning process, not the teaching. This fact brings one important difference: not being a conventional university studies is essentially free, you must be a university is not compulsory, without required courses or ideological affiliation beyond what policies should be learning and scientific research.


Does it provide official titles?
''No'', or at least not yet. We're starting to build. But try to eventually providing enough information for students who choose to study here, learn the knowledge equivalent to a school, technical training centers, an institute or a conventional university.

What Wikiversity is not:
* An institution conferred titles: Wikiversity does not confer degrees or diplomas, certificates, diplomas, etc.
* A place to provide academic positions: The Wikiversity does not give participants the right to be called "teacher" just for the sake of creating or running a section of its content. If you are a teacher in real life, feel free to call yourself well, but Wikiversity does not allow people to invent their own titles.
* An institution of higher education: Wikiversity is not restricted to educational materials "superior" or "tertiary." It aims to develop educational materials for all levels and ages. It is a
University only in the sense of a transnational community of teachers, students and scholars (universitas magistrorum et scholarium) dedicated to lifelong learning.
* that a duplication of other Wikimedia projects: Wikiversity complements other Wikimedia projects and not engage simply duplicate their content. So if you want to read about something, you better go, say,
Wikipedia or Wikibooks, but if you want to learn about this topic you can do on Wikiversity. Learning materials are created and used on Wikiversity, but materials from other projects may also be used by themselves as learning material, or other projects may be used as places to consolidate this learning, for example, writing or improving an article, manual, etc. based on what you have learned. There may be some overlap, but each project has its own approach.
