First I want to say I really enjoyed watching all those you tubes videos and understanding how each of those web 2.0 tools websites work. My understanding on web 2.0 from watching the video is that web 2.0 is to me better than web 1.0. Web 2.0 the webmaster shares the responsibility with the internet audience for keeping the website informative and engaging and by doing that people are interested in what the webmaster have to offer . whereas web 1.0 the webmaster is constantly burden with the responsibility of updating the website to keep visitors informed and engaged. So web 2.0 is more of an experience as well as giving out information and keeping people engaged. Also this website is a modern website that is transformed from a simple place to store information to a dynamic place where people regularly gather and interact. Their are alot of web 2.0 tools that are vailable and beneficial to everyone.
How does web 2.0 tools benefit/impact to today's education? By sharing, collaborating, and exchanging ideas in ways that were not dreamed of a few years ago. Web 2.0 tools have the ability to connect administrators, teachers, students, and parents all at the same time. Web 2.0 is great to have you can never go wrong with using any of these tools it makes life and education so much easier. By using web 2.0 groups can be formed to relay information quickly to a specific targeted audience. So I think web 2.0 tools are very beneficial especially to teachers.
I enjoyed watching the videos too, because I discovered that I knew a lot more about Web 2.0 tools than I thought I did. Most of the tools I had either heard of or used before, but I'd never heard the term Web 2.0. I like the fact that there is such a wide variety of resources available, so teachers can mix and match the tools that work best with their subject matter and teaching styles. More options benefits both teachers and students.
ReplyDeleteI too think the videos were great. I really think that these tools will help and come in handy when teaching my future students. You so right about these tools being useful in modern technology, I look forward to seeing what will come in the future. I also think that it will be beneficial for the students to get use to using these tools to help prepare them for their future in the professional field.

ReplyDeleteI also liked the youtube videos. They were interesting and informative. I was glad that I could learn about some many different web 2.0 tools in the lesson. I have actually never even heard of a few of the tools. Yes, I agree that web 2.0 tools are better than web 1.0 in that has the ability to involve the whole web community. Like you said it keep everyone responsible to what is on the site and is easier to keep information up to date. When the whole community is responsible anyone can update the information, instead of it being the responsibility of only one person. This can be taken advantage of very easily for groups projects and such. I wanted to mention that I am planning on using my blog and webpage for future classes so that I can easily retrieve the information in an organized place for later. The resources we are all developing in this class will make our lives as educators so much easier.
