I thought the wiki was one of the easiest to learn and use of all the "things" we have done so far. I also, think it will be one of the most useful tools as far as educational use at school, whether for student communication and input or among teachers. I liked the fact that other's can add to the wiki, sharing information and ideas for other librarians or teachers to use. This is very easy way to collaborate without having to get together for a meeting when people are so busy.
A research unit could be developed between a librarian and a team of teachers without having to meet together. A Bluebonnet Book link in your wiki could be set up for discussion among students who had read books and wanted to recommend books or even steer peers away from certain books that they weren't impressed with. Students involved in writing assignments could do it on a wiki and other students could take part in peer editing to help improve writing skills. My favorite idea is to post a research project with resources, links to webpages, questions to answer and discussion questions. Click on the link on my sidebar to see the research wiki I made.
