Reflections on Wikis in Education

I am planning on teaching grades 1-3 and hope to be a librarian someday. I honestly can not see myself using a wiki for lower grades. I could use to collaborate with parents of my students, but I just don't see it for the kids. For middle school and high school, I can see all kinds of different applications. I love the idea of having a common site to contribute during a group project. I would have loved to have had a wiki in some of my past college classes. I liked some of the ideas that were on the website. The website was pretty user friendly. I would have liked to have seen the links set up a little different. That's just my opinion.
