Well, believe it or not, but finding Wikis to explore was more challenging than I expected it. Unlike the world of blogs, Wikis are not quite as popular as an information sharing tool. I mean, I can understand why blogs might be more popular. If you put down information, you want it to stay as your information, and not have other random people altering your content.
But a good place to start for education sites is the Edublogs Award winners site and other respected technology bloggers (such as Technie4Teachers).
One in particular that really caught my eye and intrigued me is Educational Origami. This site is dedicated to 21st Century Teaching and Learning, and Oh my goodness, there is SOOOO much on this site. Anywhere from Blooms Taxonomy, Learning styles to Web 2.0 tools. There's information, suggestions, pdfs and just so many things to explore. You can get information on using Wikis, blogs, social media, RSS feeds, and Google Tools.
Another great jumping point for finding other Educational Wikis for you is Techie 4 Teachers site. This site has 7 different suggestions for different educational site that have wikis for you to explore.
Happy Reading!
