Wiki content is open to editing by the entire class, a group, the teacher, or a single student. It can also be open to viewing by the entire class, a group, the teacher, or a single student. Note that the teacher determines who can see and edit the wiki content; the settings differ.

The settings for who can edit the wiki content are done using the Wiki mode drop-down box.

The setting for who can see the wiki content is done using the Groups mode.

Making a wiki editable by only a single student appears to turn the wiki into a personal journal. However, the difference between a single student wiki and a journal is that a journal can be seen only by the student and the teacher. You can keep a single student wiki private, or you can open it to change the setting and make it collaborative for the student's group or the entire class.
