inquiry!
“If they had put out a statement not to read Wikipedia at all, I would be laughing. They might as well say don’t listen to rock ’n’ roll either.”

Evaluating Wikis• What is the purpose of the collaborative project and who
began it?• How many people appear to be involved in editing the wiki?
Does it seem that the information collected is improved by having a variety of participants? How heavily edited were the pages you plan to use?
• How rich is the wiki? How many pages does it contain?• Does the project appear to be alive? Are folks continuing to
edit it?• Does the information appear accurate? Can I validate it in
other sources?
Evaluating blogs• Who is the blogger?
• What sorts of materials is the blogger reading or citing?
• Does this blogger have influence? Is the blog well-established? Who and how many people link to the blog? Who is commenting? Does this blog appear to be part of a community? Tools like Technorati http://technorati.com and Blogpulse http://blogpulse.com can help learners assess the influence of a blog.
• Is this content covered in depth? With authority?
• How sophisticated is language / spelling?
• Is this blog alive? It there a substantial archive? How current are posts?
• At what point in a story’s lifetime did a post appear?
• Is the site upfront about its bias? • If the blogger is not a traditional “expert,” is this a first-hand view that would also
be valuable for research? Is it a unique perspective?

Blogging etiquette?
Bloggers should:• credit their sources,• check their facts,• admit when they discover they have made a
mistake,• avoid harming others,• disclose their biases
Social responsibility & wikis?
• Class-generated guidelines for negotiating content
• Using discussion to explain rationale?
• About page serving as charter for behavior, trust, accountability, and contribution.
• Even in an open authorship environment, participants should see both their freedoms and responsibilities to the community.

About the learning:
Hope is the Thing with Feathers
Emily Dickinson
"Hope" is the thing with feathersThat perches in the soulAnd sings the tune without the wordsAnd never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;And sore must be the stormThat could abash the little birdThat kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest landAnd on the strangest sea,Yet never, in extremity,It asked a crumb of me.
