One of the articles I read was “Strange Facts in the History Classroom: Or How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Wiki(pedia)” by Christopher Miller. Wikipedia has been a hot topic in every academic department since it became a popular resource. I think Miller’s approach to the subject is the most even keeled […]

After playing around with this for the past 45 minutes or so, I’ve becoming increasingly frustrated. I can’t seem to figure out how to get certain things to show up on my blog, like the blogroll. Every link has been clicked, and yet I’ve found nothing. I really wanted to figure this […]

Problem based learning, where students are given a simulated problem that imitates a situation that can or is occuring in real life.
