Dangerously Irrelevant: Teaching administrators about Wikipedia
This is a great blog post to use to frame a discussion about the educational applications for Wikipedia and the importance of teaching media literacy.
-
Our students deserve better training about how to navigate our new, complex, online information landscape. They don’t learn about information literacy, bias, media literacy, assessment of online validity, and other critical online skills by being denied access to that information. They don’t learn how to cite and use online resources appropriately if they can’t use those resources and learn from their mistakes because the materials are banned.

It isn’t just our allegation. It turns out to be physiologically different.” Baker went on to describe how teachers scoring demonstrations could be taught to eliminate subjectivity and bias and how technology was making the use of performance-based assessments more cost effective.”

“Living and Learning with New Media: Summary of Findings from the Digital Youth Project” (pdf)
“New media allow for a degree of freedom and autonomy for youth that is less apparent in classroom setting. Youth respect one another’s authority online, and they are often more motivated to learn from peers than from adults. Their efforts are also largely self-directed, and the outcome emerges through exploration, in contrast to classroom learning that is oriented toward set, predefined goals.”
