Day 29 May 4,2010

In my future classroom I will let my student use Wikipedia to conduct research. I will let them use it to find keywords, links, and references. On Wikipedia, it gives you a list keywords that bring up the most articles on your subject. It also gives you a list of links at the bottom of the screen that they can site for their paper. Also, there a list of books where the information came from where they can get more information and cite that as their reference. I think that Wikipedia is a good site, many people just don't trust it because it can be changed by anyone. But the authors go through and check to make sure that the work that is edited on there is credible, and if it is not then they delete the information. I will let my future classroom use Wikipedia to conduct research.
