Wikipedia:Schools/Projects/Notable African American Innovators

We will be working with about 20 students to do some editing on Simple English Wikipedia. Students will add content to pages of notable African American innovators. They will be using Biography.com and library resources as their reference material. They will cite the sources they reference in the Simple English Wikipedia article. Given that multiple authors will be editing the same article, it will not make sense for them to use their individual sandbox to edit the page, so please bear with us as the pages are being developed. The class occurs from 4:00 PM - 5:15 PM United States Central Time on Tuesday afternoons until May 19, 2015.
