Although there are some very good wikis listed that have been created for classrooms, I still have difficulty as to how to use one in my classroom. I know that I would have to be more familiar with the entire concept before I attempted it with students. My concern is that students would be able to add or to alter other student's work. Middle school students are not always kind. What they believe to be funny could be perceived as cruel to another student.
At this time, I could envision using this with the staff. It would be a great tool to be used along with PLC meetings. Any document that needs to be created could be done in a collaborative manner among the members of that community. Plus there is an area for discussion. A wiki that I found which demonstrates this idea is entitled Web in the Classroom Wiki. It provides good web resources from many teachers.
