Using Wikipedia to reenvision the term paper!

I have just viewed a PowerPoint presentation by two instructors who required their students to write their term papers using Wikipedia. The presentation is titled "Using Wikipedia to Reenvision the Term Paper" and has some interesting insights about what was right and what went wrong with this approach. I only viewed the PowerPoint, but the audio/video is also available. An interesting approach to say the least! The abstract states "publishing for a large audience provided authentic feedback and encouraged students to do their best work."
