Educator's Guide to Wikipedia

Schools and universities throughout the United States are discouraging students from using Wikipedia. Some simply ban students from referencing it in their coursework, but others repudiate the site as useless, inaccurate, or irrelevant.  As a collective venture, Wikipedia is all about making information a public good.  The goal of this project is to find ways for teachers and professors to educate their students about how information is constructed, controlled, and disseminated by using Wikipedia as a case study.
