===Brief summary Wikidata for Education is a curricula digitisation project aiming to align Wikimedia projects with School curricula with the help of Wikidata. Piloted in Ghana, the project proved the concept that Wikibase software helps structure curricula data. The model was later replicated in Uruguay. Wikimedia Uruguay was able to show the data with the help of an interface developed by Wikimedia Italy's project [[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_e_scuola_italiana | Wikipedia a Scuola Italiana]]. It consists of a static website that visually represents the data stored in a TSV file, plus a Python script that generates this TSV by calling different APIs [[https://wikicurricula.wikimedistas.uy|The implementation of this tool in Uruguay]] additionaly takes advantage of [[ https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Wikidata_for_Education | Wikidata for Education]], Wikimedia's initiative to digtize curriculum data. Currently, this process is done manually: we make a [[https://w.wiki/7P$C|query at Wikidata Query Service]] to obtain the curriculum topics, we download the data, clean it, and run the Python script. ===Skills required **Skillis** //**Required**// * Basic web development skills. * Intermediate proficiency in any programming language, preferably Python * Being comfortable around databases, spreadsheets and datasets * Basic Git usage //**Appreciated**// * Familiarity with SQL/SPARQL/Wikidata Query Service * Experience with [[https://d3js.org/|d3js]] library * Basic understanding of Spanish or Italian as the project is mostly documented in Spanish or Italian ===Possible mentor(s) Technical Mentor: @Piracalamina Project Mentor: @SPatnaik ===Microtasks **Microtasks** [] Make a local install of [[https://github.com/wikicurricula-uy/wikicurricula-boilerplate|Wikicurrícula Boilerplate]]. **Write down the instructions** at the Readme file.
