questions 2 ponder...

there would be no school, or they would have people who aren't teachers teach

At first we would all be like "Woo no school!" But then we would get immensely bored and beg someone to teach us something (that or endlessly spend time learning stuff from wikipedia).

wikipedia is a good place to learn from

why is wikipedia a good place to learn from. (isn't that a great origional question to ponder)

[gneissisnice]

Because really bored people take the time to share all of their knowledge with the world. Sure, people could put wrong stuff, but usually its not bad.

I like wikipedia because theres usually a lot of information on a topic that i'd have to visit several different websites for to find.
Throughout middle school we were taught to be anti-wikipedia. If we ever cited a wikipedia page as a source we'd get an F on the paper. It's probably like that at most schools though. Wikipedia can be useful if you use it the right way.
