From the article in this week’s reading, “Web 1.0 was characterized by the existence of passive web-sites and applications providing information. Web 2.0 is associated with web applications that facilitate participatory information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design and collaboration on the WWW.”

• Discuss this shift in the Internet in terms of constructivism and implications for using technology in the classroom.
• Points to consider (address at least two of these):
  • Classroom resources.
  • Student view of technology (social tool, educational tool, something that is new and cool to use, etc.).
  • Student interaction with technology.
  • Opportunities to use technology in the classroom.
  • Connecting with students outside the classroom.
