It seems to me that Wikis are very similar to Google Docs, but maybe a bit more kid-friendly for our students. I believe a good use for a Wiki in the classroom would be for book clubs or book reviews. This could be their journal writing assignment after reading the part of the book that was assigned for their book club. A Wiki could also be for students to express their reviews on a class novel or even on independent reading books that are very popular amongst the students in the class. Very cool tool!
A good use for the grade level team to use a Wiki would be for planning team meetings. Issues/ideas that want to be brought to the table could be arranged on a list and then have ready to discuss when the meeting is arranged.
