What Wikipedia Is Best at Explaining - NYTimes.com - 1 views

  • Because entries are anonymous and collaborative, no author is tempted to showboat and, in the pursuit of literary glory, swerve from the aim of clarity and utility.
  • At the strenuously collectivist Wikipedia, it seems, “ownership” of an article — what in legacy media is called “authorship” — is strictly forbidden. But it’s more than that: even doing jerky things that Wikipedia calls “ownership behavior” — subtle ways of acting proprietary about entries — is prohibited.

    Timely article about ideas of ownership and authorship and collaboration on wikipedia. Mentions that you can type "WP: OWN" into Wikipedia to read its policy about "ownership" of articles. "The page is fascinating for anyone who has ever been part of a collaborative effort to create anything."

Dive In Digital - 1 views

  •  
    I made this wiki for a class I took last semester on Authorship and Learning in the Digital Age. It was designed as a resource for teachers who are interested in using the internet in the classroom, but want to make sure they are preparing their students for safe internet use. It deals with COPPA, privacy and safety concerns, and touches on media literacy and informs teachers what researchers have found about young kids' processing of online content. I'd love to hear your feedback on the site, and if you find it useful, please forward the link along!
