To the question about the possibility that students do their
homework by doing cut and paste from Wikipedia, he answered it is ok because
teachers also have an access to Wikipedia, so they can check and find a cheat. It
is interesting because many teachers told me about it so I found that Jimmy
Wales also thinks so. Regarding of accuracy, interviewer argued that Wikipedia
lacks in accuracy because anyone can add something very easily. He believes
that Wikipedia is updated quickly and people try hard to be accurate so it is
not a great problem, but he did admit some kind of error can exist. Also he
said that it is important to be critical of all the information, so though I
learned that Wikipedia can be trustable but I don’t change my mind of being
critical of information on the Internet. It is true that it is useful in
getting information so I will use it carefully.
