Idit Harel CapertonWorld Wide Workshop Foundation
Developing and using open-source platforms and tools, including media-wiki software as architectures for active participation, for programming simulations and games (by professionals and youth-learners).  We have been integrating our organization's programs into open wiki platforms, using them as democratizing spaces for transparent learning, global collaboration, and action research.  Also, in the past 3 years, I have been using various wiki systems in different ways for: 1) running my consulting business, 2) managing our ongoing product development with programmers and educators from around the world, 3) teaching in China, 4) informational foundation work, and 5) ongoing research on all the above.

We have created a global wiki network for youth game design at the World Wide Workshop Foundation (MyGLife.org). I'm interested in learning more about optimizing this platform for informal youth learning, and also about conducting research on how young people engage with it in the context of game design activities.
