Thanks Kirby Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear. I have several class assignments looking at Wikipedia page histories and discussions so students understand the process and the power of a collaboratively written resource work like Wikipedia. That works great.
WE are always eager to expand our WikiEducator user community. While it is going well, it could be better. This comment from a student was simply the latest reminder that there are faculty who are actively campaigning against wikis and web-based learning objects. I am frustrated by faculty and their lack of curiosity and professional growth, that after all this time they are still short-changing their students with their anti-Wikipedia beliefs. If faculty won't accept Wikipedia as a resource, it will be a very hard sell to get them to author or adopt learning objects in WikiEducator. While that is their loss, their students are missing out as well. Thanks for listening. ..Valerie On Jan 18, 6:49 pm, kirby urner <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 5:50 PM, valerie <[email protected]> wrote: >
