A proposed Wikiversity/Miraheze collaboration

 * 1) Second_Journal_of_Science is a startup journal for the teaching of science. Along with a more established journal,  Wikijournal of Medicine, this is part of a Wikijournal proposal.  These journals need a platform where authors may privately collaborate, and collaboration in wikitext will incentivize submission to journals that use wikitext.  Also editors and referees need private channels of communication.  Update: WikiJournal of Medicine now has a page at wijoumed.miraheze.org.
 * 2) Second Semester Calculus Based Physics is a class roster for one of three courses I am currently teaching. If you go to the Study guide you will see that this course has an open source bank of exam questions that permits a major part of the course to be taught online.  Solutions are available for most of the problems in this bank.  I would like to have students write lab reports in subpages of the roster (see this brief student report by User:W025nacfor an example. )

Steps towards collaboration

 * 1) Begin a discussion on Wikiversity Colloquium. Started (see https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Wikiversity:Colloquium&oldid=1594718#Proposal_for_official_collaboration_with_miraheze.org)
 * 2) Begin a discussion with Miraheze.  (Not started: I don't even know whom to contact.)
 * 3) Add my name to the list of helpful people Miraheze (Not done, I need more time to research the suitability of Miraheze for this collaboration
 * 4) Begin to enroll students as owners of private wikis on Miraheze (Not done, but I can start small with one or two students to beta-test this)
 * 5) Begin to use these private wikis as platforms for lab writeups and other writing assignments (Not ready to do yet).
