After making an account on Wikipedia and searching many different topics, I have become the most intersted in the effectiveness of technology with special needs children. I found a Wikipedia entry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assistive_technology, which I am interested in editing for my wikipedia assignment. The entry discusses a limited amount of ways it has effected children with special needs and I can add more to that topic.
There is also another wikipedia entry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lekotek, which discusses briefly the concept of Lekotek. Lekotek is a program to provide assistive technology, toys, and expertise to disabled children. This entry is very short and I think I can contribute much more information to this entry.
A few other wikipedia entries I discovered related to my topic that I could possibly contribute to are as follows:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disabled_Children's_Computer_Group
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_Person_&_Technology_Model
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloorview_MacMillan_Children's_Centre
http://www.lekotek.org/ is the official website for the Lekotek company, which provides useful information about that topic. http://www.e-bility.com/arata/sigs_hpt_mpt.php is another website that involves the topic about Matching Person and Technology.
Overall, I believe my main goal for my wikipedia assignment is to contribute to a website that involves assistive technology and special needs children or different organizations that promote this theme.
I am considering doing this topic or the one about second life/griefers.
