This blog post by Stacy Zemke is reposted from it’s original home at OUOpenEd. Stacy and I gave a presentation on incorporating Wikipedia into the classroom at the Teaching Scholar’s Initiative this past fall.

Wikis and Wikipedia are not the same thing, a wiki is a platform designed for quick editing by multiple users, Wikipedia is a specific implementation of a wiki.
So we know students are going to Wikipedia, it is time to learn to love it!

This morning, John Stewart and I are giving a panel presentation at the OU Teaching Scholars Initiative. We have pulled together a lot of links that we plan to share, and I though I would post them here as well.
