Presidential Election and Wikipedia

Election Banner

Wikipedia is a wonderful tool for the 2008 presidential election. Some educators shun Wikipedia and I have to admit that I am on the fence about using Wikipedia with my students but the fact is that there is a lot of information (and opinion) out there that is important in this election. I am not a big follower of politics but I have paid more attention to this race than any other due to the close race in the Democratic party. I guess it appeals to my competitive side. I checked out Wikipedia this morning and they have more information on this presidential race than I could ever use but I was impressed with how it was put together and how easy it was to get around on this topic.
