Hodel:Wikipedia im Geschichtsunterricht

Wikipedia is usually the first point of contact for students when it comes to researching unfamiliar topics. In schools, the online encyclopedia has become a reality, whether intended or not. This volume explores Wikipedia in the context of historical learning. In addition to addressing problems, it primarily focuses on the opportunities that arise from a usage that goes beyond everyday use as a mere source of information. Through critical engagement with information from Wikipedia, students can question their own approach to history. This allows them to develop and maintain a skeptical mindset. The volume provides numerous practical examples for teaching.
