Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Open Source Schools conference, Nottingham, Monday 20th July

Great stuff! Take a stack of Wikipedia for Schools CDs (or DVDs,
whatever it's on these days) to hand out. I guess you need to spend
most of the time emphasising how to use Wikipedia properly and that,
if you do use it properly, it is a good research tool so shouldn't be
banned.
