Thing 15


Just like a lot of other high school students, I was always told not to use Wikipedia for any of my papers, research projects, or group work assignments. One day, I will more than likely tell my students the same things. I guess after hearing the rule for so long, that it is still hard to trust the site even if you are sure the information is a fact. After looking at some of these Wikis, I found out not all the information on these sites are false.  These websites are actually really good sites to visit if you simply need information about a topic fast or just clarification on an event.  I could tell by just looking around on the sites that a lot of people spend a lot of time making the Wikis what they are.  Just like a lot of other people have been saying, I would use Wikis in my classroom in group work projects. The students would be allowed to have time in class to research topic in History and write a summary of the events that occurred.
