appreciate the argument that it is off topic.
So the idea is that students would do their normal reading responses,
and then as part of a project work together with students who
happened to do responses on the same paper to create an appropriate
summary somewhere.
Are you aware of the project Wikiversity? It's just the kind of wiki you
seem to be looking for. Plus, you don't have to install and maintain a
wiki on your own.

The mission statement of Acawiki states: "AcaWiki enables graduate
students and researchers to share summaries of academic papers online"
Now, Joseph, would the students be summarizing higher level academic
papers or high-school level material?
If its not summarizing academic papers, then its clear that these
contributions are not for AcaWiki.
