 1.  Did the class activity about Wikipedia and this article change your opinion about the value of Wikipedia to society in general and education specifically?


Not exactly. I still have the same opinion about Wikipedia that I have always had, which is that it's a good reference for general information. I would never use it for a research paper or any kind of school project, but I do use it for obtaining information quickly and will continue to do so.

2.  Describe how you might direct students to use Wikipedia in your future classroom.

The only way I would allow a student to use Wikipedia in my classroom is as a starting point for research. For example, the student could use the sites referenced on the Wikipedia page, or conduct a new search of their own to find out if the information they found on Wikipedia is legitimate.
