[Irtalk] Wikimania 2014: Wikipedia belongs in Education | Open Education Working Group

[Hilton Gibson]

Wikipedia continues its fight to be seen as credible in an education
context despite the fact that research has shown Wikipedia to be a hugely
useful tool in education and users get higher exam results.

David White provided a wonderfully clear rhetoric on ‘*what’s left to teach
now Wikipedia has done everyone’s homework*’ (his notes). His premise was
that we need to think about the difference between education and learning;
learning is bigger than education.
