[iaoa-education] Education Committee paragraph for newsletter

[Zena Wood]

Thank you Maria and Todd. Yes, we should add the Pub Quiz. How about:


        In addition to development of the technical programme of ISAO 2016, the Education Committee has continued to develop their Wiki (http://iaoaedu.cs.uct.ac.za/) with information about courses around the world, books, and other resources including a growing list of terms with definitions (in different contexts). The committee’s mission statement has also been updated and can be found at http://www.iaoa.org/iaoaTC/TCeducation/TCeducation.php. Future plans for the committee include  creation of a textbook, the development of an ontology competition, and adding more information to the Wiki. The ontology pub quiz from ISAO with 42 questions about ontology and ontologies is available upon request but will also be made available through the Wiki shortly.  We would ask IAOA members to let us know if they will help with the addition of terms and definitions to the Wiki. If you would like to join the Committee, be added to their mailing list, or assist with the terms or their (possible) definitions, please contact Maria Keet (mkeet at cs.uct.ac.za<mailto:mkeet at cs.uct.ac.za>) or Zena Wood (Z.Wood at greenwich.ac.uk)<mailto:Z.Wood at greenwich.ac.uk%29>.
