About Wikipelli _{(after Kokopelli)}

I am an educator and have taught in public schools and universities for over 30 years. In my work with students and teachers, I spend a great deal of time concentrating on the importance of being critical users of information. I am a strong advocate for the use and development of Wikipedia as a resource with k-12 students. My dream is to one day get librarians and teachers in the public schools to embrace Wikipedia for what it is and what it can do for students. I would love to see the day when teachers embrace Wikipedia and begin to develop editors in our schools! Sadly, we seem to be a long way from that.

I have been editing Wikipedia for almost a fiftieth of a century.

I am also very active in the development of social networking in schools and believe that social networking and communication can (and should) play a vital role in public school instruction.

The greater portion of my time on Wikipedia is reverting vandalism with Huggle or Twinkle. I also very much enjoy watching new editors contribs and welcoming them. I step in and offer what little help I can whenever possible and, knock wood, really haven't gotten into anything controversial yet.

Over the past few months I have created a few articles and really enjoy that process, too.
