I have had a bit of experience with wikis through Uni study, and while it was great to use, especially for a group project, it was a little difficult to edit as there were codes that needed to be entered to format it properly. Once you got the hang of that it was great.
A couple of our ICT classes at the moment are using wikis for project, though I think they have just started and can't say how they have found them yet. I think they are great for sharing ideas and for classes to all be able to work on a project together. The biggest wiki around, is Wikipedia. While it is a good source of general information, the fact that it can be edited by others, makes it an unreliable source for many assignments. This is something that students need to be aware of when it comes to wikis and using their information.
