I don't let my students use Wikipedia for papers because anybody can change things on the site and provide students with the wrong information such as "Abigail Adams was the first U.S. President." However, I am starting to re-think that decision. Why you might ask, because I'm flexible. Well, not in person (hee hee), but I am willing to accept new things and am usually open to new suggestions. Anyhow, since researching this assignment in the past few weeks I am using Wikipedia for everything.
Last week I wanted to know who a certain dancer was on "Dancing with the Stars" and BAM! I looked it up on Wikipedia. So, I think this is a great tool for students as well as me. Why you might ask - and I knew you would - because students have to look up the information currently contained within the 'post' and then update it. It's a win, win!!!
Additionally, I played in the sand. I wish it had been in Hawaii, but it's Austin Peay's sand and it wasn't bad. Sorry about the bold pink font, but it's been a long semester!
