Kudos to the teachers who dock kids for using Wikipedia as a source for a research project - if you have managed, somehow, to graduate from primary education without learning how to use a library, you should not have been granted a diploma.
From there, it's easy enough to realise that nearly every online forum of a technical or semi-technical nature has a "search" button, and who doesn't know that you can search a specific site with most online search engines? (Doesn't matter which one you use - it's all just a front-end for a grep statement anyhow.)
Do not expect me to tell you the answer outright - I'll make you figure it out on your own. Do not expect my lessons to be easy if you ask me to tutor you - I've been told I'm harder than most schools. The upside? If you can make it through my lessons, school should be a snap!

Blame the sorry state of 'education' these days. They're so tied up with being politically correct and trying to not offend anyone - or, worst, "not damaging their self-esteem" - that the kids these days are spoon-fed the answers and don't have to think for themselves. Hell, when was the last time a kid had to look something up?

Boo. Kids should be encouraged to use both the new technologies available to them, and the libraries. Reading information on the internet or reading it in a book, whats the difference? What's most important is citing the sources. There are a lot of information on the internet that you could never find in a library.
