Wikis are a innovative tool that seamlessly wove it's way into our technological lives. I've found that many users began using Wikipedia and did not realize that they know it was a tool called a Wiki. Since other applications of the tool are now available, we find that we know how to use it. Schools can use wikis in communications with parents. In planning a school carnival, career day, or health fair, parents should appreciate being able to help in the planning without having to pack up their younger child and drive to the school. That might help to improve parental involvement.
