Wikipedia: My humble opinion

Wow!!! I really hated wikipedia before this class and didn't really have a reason to. Most of my hatred stemmed out of arrogance. I felt that using wikipedia for research was lazy and unreliable. Boy was I wrong. Wikipedia is reliable, you just have to be careful about what you are reading in wikipedia. You also need to double check the information you find. I plan on using Wikipedia in a future Health class setting. I could use Wikipedia for any Health subject. I could have the students research a health subject only using wikipedia and distinguish between accurate and inaccurate information.
