Wikis such as Wikipedia are free, collaborative open online resources that allow users to find information on a diverse range of topics, and to contribute to information at will. Wikipedia can be edited by users themselves, and resembles an in-depth online encyclopedia. Many students from K-12 use wikis as a main knowledge source for assignments, as the information is reliable and easily accessible. Teachers themselves may even consult Wikipedia for information on certain topics. Wikis are extremely useful classroom for gifted students who are looking to delve deeper into a subject, or for struggling students who need additional explanations.

 

Wikipedia does not have an age requirement for users to edit or read articles. The website does however suggest that individuals under the age of 16 use safe Internet practices and protect their identity (Wikipedia).
