DESCRIPTION:This study investigates the extent of Americanization in differ
 ent geographical regions by analyzing Wikidata items and Wikipedia article
 s across various languages. It reveals differences in the interest in Amer
 ican topics\, depending on the development of countries. This research off
 ers the first global\, quantitative evidence of Americanization\, challeng
 ing previous assumptions. Additionally\, it highlights Wikipedia's potenti
 al in quantifying social science concepts traditionally deemed unmeasurabl
 e and contributes to discussions on the platform's biases. Moreover\, as a
 n important part of the research\, American sources of information in Wiki
 pedia articles were identified and analyzed.

DESCRIPTION:We examine teachers' experiences using Wikipedia as a teaching 
 tool in higher education worldwide. While no gender or age bias was found\
 , there's evidence of a global digital divide\, with English-speaking regi
 ons more active. Most instructors integrate Wikipedia into assignments\,  
 using tools and materials developed by the Wikimedia Community\, reporting
  positive teaching experiences but noting  time-consuming nature of this a
 ctivity. The COVID-19 pandemic saw a seamless transition to distance learn
 ing using digital assignments.
