Dr. Chris Harlow (Programme Organiser, Reproductive Biology Honours) has run a Wikipedia research assignment for Hons. students for the last two years. Students researched a term related to reproductive health which was not yet represented on Wikipedia and then proceeded to write a new article about this term, thereby sharing their research with the global Open Knowledge community.
In this short clip, an excerpt from two longer interviews, Dr. Harlow reflects on the assignment along with a student on the course, Áine Kavanagh.
