Thing #17 & 18 - So what's in a wiki

I enjoyed the Book Lover's blog and can see myself going back to in the future. Creating a pathfinder wiki like SJCPL could be useful in a school setting. It can be used to give students resources for projects and research. It can also be used to inform students and parents about other resources on a topic to supplement and enrich the classroom work.
I think it would be a great way for students to share their comments about a book they just read, or what they learned in the latest unit in science or social studies. The openness of the wiki is both great and scary.
