A wiki is collaborative tool for editing a single document. In
instruction, wikis can be used for group writing assignments, or
projects, or simply to allow multiple authors to craft a page. This
page, https://cft.vanderbilt.edu/guides-sub-pages/wikis/, explains more about using wikis as an instructional tool for creating and evaluating.
Canvas does not have a tool specifically called "wiki", however, each
page is able to be edited by multiple authors when designated by the
instructor. To create a wiki for your class, follow these instructions
to create a new page
in Canvas. Then, change the settings on the page to allow "anyone" to
edit. One important feature to note is that the Canvas Pages tool does
not track participation and contribution statistics like the Blackboard
Wiki tool did, which may affect grading policies.
This
guide from Northwestern University provides step-by-step instructions
