Wow! Another amazing tool to help students in their learning and collaborating. I can see the students using wikis in writing for continuous stories and for the writing process. I also envision the students using this in literature groups by writing summaries and character resumes in the books they are reading in their groups. It can also be a place for the students to keep a learning log to review what they have been learning in class.
Wikis can also be used for teams to collaborate on lesson plans and notes. One suggestion I liked is sending a letter home and explaining what is the students are doing on wiki and allowing the parents to sign into the wiki to see what is happening in the class.
I like the idea of sharing wikis with parents. As a parent I know that it is sometimes hard to know what is going on in the classroom.
