=== WikiVet News and Updates ===
 +
Welcome to all new registered users in 2015 - you are joining a global community of '''[[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFUSERS}}]]''' veterinary students and practitioners. For more information about how to get the most out of the site, please '''[[New Students|take a look at this section]]'''.
 +
====WikiVet Reaches 40,000 Registered Members!====
 +
At the beginning of 2015 WikiVet reached 40,000 registered users. In honour of this milestone we have awarded a prize to the lucky 40,000th registrant Kate Cheeseman from [[UK - Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, Edinburgh|The Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, Edinburgh]], who has provided us with a brief [[40,000th Registered User - Kate Cheeseman|biography]].
  
We are also working on a range of other collaborative projects including sharing digital video and images, online courses, computer aided assessments and lecture materials. You can find out more about this work from the link below:
+
====WikiVet Global Challenge Winners====
 +
There has been a great response to the Global Dentistry Challenge in November with over 350 respondents from over 60 vet schools. We are now analysing all the results to help us identify topics that students have difficulty with. In the meantime, Lisa Milella has created a 30 minute [[Dentistry Launch|guide]] explaining what the correct responses actually were.
  
*[[Projects|Collaborative Projects]]

We are also delighted to announce the three prize winners for the Challenge:

==== Vet Revise ====
 +
This brilliant [[Vet_Revise|flash card program]] has been developed by Matthew Dobson, a 4th year veterinary student at the Royal Veterinary College. Vet Revise is a sophisticated flashcard program which uses a system similar to [http://ankisrs.net/ Anki], which is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods. It not only greatly decreases your time spent studying but also increases the amount you learn. Matthew has recently been selected as a leading [http://elevator.jisc.ac.uk/sosi14/ideas/vet-revise-smarter-way-study Student Innovator] in the UK. The program has been developed for vet students and now includes over 80,000 flashcards. It has just been released for student use and we hope you will find it useful and inspire you to build and share your own card sets.
  
The Wiki Vet project is an integral part of the vetschools.ac.uk web site which now has over 5,000 signed up vets and students who have graduated from a total of 220 different veterinary schools around the world. Add yourselg to our World Vet Map from the link below:

We are also really pleased that the '''[http://www.avsukireland.co.uk/ Association of Veterinary Students]''' and the '''[http://www.ivsa.org/ International Veterinary Students Association]''' have agreed to work with WikiVet in raising awareness of the site with their associated veterinary schools.

We currently have students and academics from most of the UK veterinary schools working on different aspects of the wiki. If you would like to get involved too, please email [mailto:vetschools@rvc.ac.uk vetschools].

Welcome to all new registered users in 2015 - you are joining a global community of 68,194 veterinary students and practitioners. For more information about how to get the most out of the site, please take a look at this section.

WikiVet Reaches 40,000 Registered Members!

At the beginning of 2015 WikiVet reached 40,000 registered users. In honour of this milestone we have awarded a prize to the lucky 40,000th registrant Kate Cheeseman from The Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, Edinburgh, who has provided us with a brief biography.

WikiVet Global Challenge Winners

There has been a great response to the Global Dentistry Challenge in November with over 350 respondents from over 60 vet schools. We are now analysing all the results to help us identify topics that students have difficulty with. In the meantime, Lisa Milella has created a 30 minute guide explaining what the correct responses actually were.

We are also delighted to announce the three prize winners for the Challenge:

  1. Hannah Moody who is a fourth year student at the Royal (Dick) Vet School in Edinburgh
  2. Paulina Wieczorkowska a veterinary student from Poland who came second
  3. Ssebunya Yvette a fourth year student at the College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Biosecurity(CoVAB), Makerere University, Uganda

More information about our winners and the link to the video are available on the dentistry launch page.
