I am officially a wiki addict! I never really thought twice about wikis...all I knew was that wikipedia was banned from all college classes. I LOVE wikis. Have I gotten that point across yet? :)
Editing the apsu23things wiki was a piece of cake (literally...I posted a picture of cake.) It was so much easier than I thought it would be! Because of how easy it was to edit, I just know it would be so easy for elementary school students to figure out as well. (They are already more tech savvy than me, you know.) I can definitely see myself making a class project revolving around a wiki page. It would be a new and fun way to get students involved in learning. The more hands-on you can get, the better (especially with younger students).
I do think that you really need to be careful when using wikis though because of the fact that it is so easy to edit and change information around.
I will definitely be using wiki's in my classroom!
