Thing #5

Web 2.0 is very interesting to me on how the 2.0 just meant a new version which was basically reading and writing. Back in the day when the web first came to be it was just meant to retrieve information not recieve it too. Now the web is a necessity for most people. Social networking is really the main thing that everyone can stay online all night and day. Social networking is an easy way to get in touch or stay in touch with family and friends that live too far to visit very much. School 2.0 is basically similar to web 2.0 in reaching students as teachers in school and out of school. Technology in the classroom is a school 1.0. Technology at home to communicate with students to do with school work is a school 2.0. The students can comment the teacher and other students which will be a good method of communication. Also today everyone has cellular phones which have access to the internet or texting that will also be a good form of communication. I think in the future there will be a better form of solid communication in future schools.

  1. Great points! I agree that technology like the internet creates a perfect place for social networking, which can be a great benefit for future teachers to keep in touch with students and parents as well as keep them informed on events.

  2. I agree with logan2013. I would disagree in saying that web 2.0 is really a new version of the internet so much as it is what it was growing/ evolving toward. It's really just semantics though because the internet is what is, and it doesn't matter what you call it.
