I think the greatest benefit is that students can access information any time and contribute at any time. I have classes that consist of many small pull-out groups across different classes. This way they can have the benefits of working in a small group, but also have the feeling of a larger learning community through the wiki. With a new schedule at our school this year, the time between seeing any class varies from one to two days. With a wiki, students can be contributing everyday, regarless of whether the class meets or not.

Seems like a cool idea/technology, which could open a new door to collaboration. Would need to learn how to keep track of who's doing what
