[Walking with Web 2.0] It's a Wonderful Wiki World!! « Walking with Web 2.0: Considering how negative teachers in my school are about students using Wikipedia I was pleasantly surprised when I was researching that I could find very few recent articles that put Wikipedia in a negative light.  I wonder if as Badke suggests in his article What do to with Wikipedia the reason is because “Wikipedia is an affront to academia because it undercuts what makes academics the elite in society.”   Wikipedia is created by “everyman” and yes, that does mean that mistakes and inaccuracies do occur but instead of pretending that students aren’t using it we need to teach students to read information critically.  Wikipedia itself cautions users by telling them that the information may be biased or inaccurate.  I’m not saying I want my student quoting Wikipedia as an authoritative source but why not let them start there when they begin their research.  We are kidding ourselves if we think they aren’t doing that anyway.

Worse, it makes it much harder to find that email I got a few days ago from someone I can’t remember, on a topic of which I can only remember one word.

[Mrs. P's Blog] Teacher Pedalogical Beliefs « Mrs. P's Blog: I graduated from Concordia University in 1999 and began teaching immediately.  My first class was a 3/4 blend.  That’s a tough one right out of the gate!  I have enjoyed looping back and forth with third and fourth grade.  I have spent the past two years specializing in literacy for two fourth grade classrooms.  My teaching partner teaches math and science and I teach reading, writing and social studies.  This job assignment is by far my favorite.  I hope to continue working with my partner for many years!

Smith ignores the fact that this experiment conducted by a teenager was not subjected to the rigorous methods that are inherent to the scientific process.
