=Who cares about technology? Our students do...so we should too!!!= Are you paying attention to how today's student learns??? Are we teaching according to how we learned...or how they learn???

It is baffling to know the amount of information out there...it is also humbling to see how we are keeping up with it:

media type="custom" key="8299126" (This video was created in 2007, I believe. They have released updated versions--they are now at version 4.0...you can get to them by going to the creators wiki...shifthappens.wikispaces.com.) = = = Web 2.0 Tools =

According to Dictionary.com, //Web 2.0// is defined as "the internet viewed as a medium in which interactive experience, in the form of blogs, wikis, forums, etc., plays a more important role than simply accessing information."

So what does that mean??? Web 2.0 is different in that the user is not relying on the web to simply access information...Web 2.0 users use the web to personalize and custom tailor the information accessed. The ordinary end user becomes a much more active component!

This can be a resource for us to share the Web tools we use on a daily basis...anything to make our daily lives a little bit easier! :)

Is Web 2.0 //really// that big of a deal?? I'm afraid so...
