completed by: Aditya Baweja

mentors: Andreas Cord-Landwehr

KDE Edu (http://edu.kde.org) provides several powerful applications that ease the process of learning a new language. On the other side, under the umbrella of the Wikimedia foundation (http://www.wikimedia.org/) there are a lot of awesome projects that could be integrated in Edu applications to better support learning a new language or that could even inspire new applications of their own.

It is your task to write a survey on the questions: "How can KDE Edu ease language learning by using Wikimedia content". In details, you should write your report about at least 5 scenarios that each explain

  • what data of which Wikimedia project should be used
  • how should this data be used in the KDE Edu applications (be precise!)
  • how would your proposed changes improve for a learner experience in the named application

Your report should conclude with recommended actions for KDE Edu developer. Please submit your report in an editable standard format (preferable OpenDocument). Your report should include screenshots and references to specific websites where appropriate.
