Description

Print and Digital! Getting started with research? What resources should students use for research? Help them understand what is probably their favorite resource: Wikipedia. Students gather and analyze data on how they use it -- as well as analyze two entries.

Whether you allow students to use Wikipedia or not, this activity will help them understand how and why it works. This is also a perfect lesson to use as a jumping off point for evaluating websites for bias and learning how to cite sources.

This resource includes everything you need to start teaching today!

  • Print and Digital options!
  • Daily lesson plans
  • Student survey activity with data collection and analysis -- survey peers, create a pie graph with data, analyze data to draw conclusions
  • The history of Wikipedia, how it works, the good & bad, suggestions for use

  • Exit slips/ journal topics for each lesson
  • Rubric for graphing analysis activity
  • Answer keys
