How and why to use Wikipedia editing for course projects:
Dr. Glass believes in democratizing science by open sharing of data and strong science communication. Towards this goal, in 2018 she started to create Wikipedia pages (especially for notable women in STEM) and to assign Wikipedia editing in courses.
