Activity #2: Reflections on Web 2.0

After watching the Web 2.0 videos, I recognized how instrumental these technologies can be to the teaching profession. It was very interesting to see how all of the teachers in the learning community interacting to create activities for their students to connect their learning across curriculum. I can see how the idea of web blogs and pod casting can allow parents to have insight into their child's education. By allowing them to engage in the activities that their children are experiencing, they can better assist them in understanding how these activities relate to their life and future learning.

This is also a great way for other educators to share ideas and strategies for effective teaching. I have learned more in my career from other educators by watching them perform. This gives everyone the opportunity to see what others are doing without spending time and money organizing staff developments. Teachers can engage in development activities on their own time as well as chose the activities that best suit their needPr
