Article: When Wikipedia Is the Assignment

If there’s one place where scholars should be able to question assumptions about the use of technology in the classroom (and outside of it), it’s the annual Educause conference, which wrapped up on Friday in Seattle. At a morning session featuring a professor and a specialist in learning technology from the University of Washington at Bothell, presenters showed how Wikipedia – often viewed warily by educators who worry that students too readily accept unverifiable information they find online – can be marshaled as a central component of a course’s syllabus rather than viewed as a resource to be banned or reluctantly tolerated. http://insidehighered.com/news/2007/10/29/wikipedia
