Hooray! We have finished the assessed portion of our program. Now, on to the next step.
Let's do an independent investigation.
Answer the following questions and then let's take a few minutes to discuss your findings.
1. What is Web 2.0? Find a definition for this term and be prepared to explain to others.
2. You are all bloggers - that is each of you has a blog for educational purposes. What other purposes are there for blogs? Find 2 different types of blogs.
3. What is a wiki? What is the purpose? Watch this video to gain some ideas of how YOU could use a wiki: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dnL00TdmLY&feature=fvst (Do you think we could make a cool video like this?) How could you use a wiki for educational purposes?
