Wikipedia

The start of a new week and it has been a few days since my last posting.
Lets look at Wikipedia today. It's an interesting concept that acts as a wiki where anyone is welcome to make a contribution to this ever expanding online encyclopedia. My first reaction was that many of the entries are just made up and not valid. However the research into Wikipedia says that well over 99% of entries are factual. Could be used with your class during research, literacy and a unit on sifting through the internet to determine what is valid and what is not.
