1. Personally I don't put much faith in Wikipedia. The fact that any person or persons can on here and post potentially false information about a subject and pass it off for truth should make anybody wary of using it. I'm no saying that everything on there is incorrect, I have found factual information on there before, but people should always double check. I would not let my students cite any information off of this site for this reason though, just like all of my professors won't allow me to use it in class.
2. The book seems to think that learning community conversing is helpful and while there are some that would agree with this, I also know that there those that would disagree. Personally, I believe that it would depend on a person's learning style. This is why a teacher needs to have a variety of teaching strategies in the classroom.
3. This is an interesting question. I don't believe that a person's learning style is dependant on their personality type. Rather, I believe they may be independent of each other. A person that is an EFSJ, like me for example, may do better in a learning community or they may do better in traditional teaching. They may possibly do well in both. I believe a persons learning style just depends on the individual.
