I also have now generated way too many wiki ideas for using this year with my students. Looking around the links posted I was thinking about the possibility of connecting with students across the country or internationally. In past years my students have communicated with pen pals (the old fashioned snail-mail way!) and continued with their friendships via their personal emails. I am now thinking how cool it would be to actually work on a project with kids from NY for example. I am also thinking that we could set up a Wiki with our writing and have a specific audience in a couple different schools around the US or possibly even internationally. I also think that I might set up our class journal in either a blog setting or wiki depending on how interactive we'd like it to be. Like all ideas, there are many pieces that I do not know or understand how to make it so, but I love to dream in big pictures! I think once we get started this year we will begin to see the possibilities grow exponentially.
