<h1>Wow! This is so foriegn to me but yet so exciting. I've been trying to think how I might use a wiki with my tutoring. The students I work with have several other teachers and resource persons involved in their learning. I think I'd like to see us all use a wiki to keep in communication about assignments, tests, and projects. Also, we could keep up a running dialogue about important issues surrounding that student's learning and interaction with others at the school. We could post links to helpful sites and articles that pertain to this student. Finding time to all meet is always a problem and so I see a wiki as a way to stay connected.</h1>
 
Could you have your tutoring students each add pieces of an ongoing assignment - even steps to a math problem or lines of a poem depending on their needs?---Bev DeRise 
 
With tutoring it is important to keep up-to-date on approaching assignments, tests and due dates. Did you notice that you can import calendars? If teachers were to keep a Google Docs calendar, every time they'd update their calendar, it would update on your wiki. -Amanda Stauffer 
 
I use wikis as a collaboration tool amongst teachers and division level staff. I use wikis to post URLs to content resources and for discussion on technology topics in our school division. Also, I use them for workshop/course agendas, so people can access links to content and add comments and more resources that are relevant. I think the ideas here are some good ones on how you can use with students. I find wikis a very useful tool. Tim
