Used as a collaborative weekly or daily learning tool within the classroom, anyone who has access to wikispace can use this to share their ideas on. It can also allow for joint construction of ideas and/or information on a topic. I could create a class wiki for the children in the literacy support group and create links to websites that would be valuable to their learning and add them to the wiki. I could edit my wiki page to add things like text, images, and/or discussion forums. Connecting RSS feeds to my wiki could alert me whenever a change is made to the wiki.
Nings appear to be another good social network tool, however, are really only appropriate for children over the age of 13years, therefore I would not encourage this application to be used at a primary school level.
