== My   experience  with   Wikipedia==

I am working as a primary school teacher since 10 years. When I started browsing web,I was almost blind.I was not aware of any rule , that I was supposed to follow.I was reading any thing from any where.I was ignorent about the authenticity of the content which I was searching and even about the different kinds of Licences.

One fine day when I attended the ICT training , I was taught about the various ways of browsing web.It is here I learnt about Wikipedia.Then we were asked to explore more about it.A whole new window of knowledge opened before us.It has articles on almost every important thing .It also provides links to related pages with addition information .I felt very happy to see that it is a non -profit organisation doing such a wonderful work.I even used Wikimedia commans to download various media resources ,which were copy right free.All these I can use in my classrooom transactions.

As a part of one of our assignments during ICT training, we were asked to open an account in Wikipedia.I opened an account in Wikipedia.I am feeling proud to be a part of it. Wkipedia has articles with authentic information, on which we can rely. We can even write our own article. It even allows us to edit the existing articles if we want to contribute. It is a rich experience for me , where I can enrich my knowledge as well as even share my learning experiences with others around the world.I hope this article will inspire other internet users to know about Wikipedia.

Thank you!
