Hi.
Does anyone know of specific materials developed for teaching critical reading skills (either in K-12 or higher education) *through* reading Wikipedia?
I vaguely remember coming across some, but don't remember the details.
I'm thinking about things like "how to identify bias", "how to distill the argument from a paragraph", "what are weasel words", logical fallacies, etc.
Thanks,
A.

This is about 75 % of the focus of a typical short WMIT presentation in a school, we try to keep our material at http://wiki.wikimedia.it/wiki/Documenti_e_presentazioni
