    I realize that Wikipedia is not always the best resource however this site reinforces the fact that the learners all have certain goals, needs, interests, motivations and problems. It also brings to light that members of a PLN will collaborate and learn differently from one another.

    What's ironic about this article is that Wikipedia is written by a group of people about topics they are interested in. It's written collaboratively by the people that use it and in a way is a PLN. I think Wikipedia is definitely an appropriate resource for a topic on PLN's.

    That is a very good point. For this project, I agree that Wikipedia was appropriate but unfortunately in other situations it may not be as acceptable. I suppose it depends on the circumstance the information is needed.
