Shannon's HIST 390 Blog

Our discussion during class today made me realize that when my teachers say don’t use Wikipedia cause it is all wrong, they are actually wrong. Yes, random people are able to edit information on Wikipedia but on most pages, there are people that know the actual facts and will go and change the false information. In my experience, Wikipedia has actually helped me find information I needed when I couldn’t find it on any other academic based cite. Wikipedia can be very useful to students, they just have to know how to see what information is real and what is false.
