Thoughts on Web 2.0




Web 1.0 was good for me when first learning web design (how to create a webpage). I liked being able to post information on the internet without anyone telling me that I was doing it wrong. It allowed me as the user to feel more confident.

However Web 2.0 is much more exciting as a user. I feel students will be more excited to use it as well because it allows for collaboration. It allows for more than one person to participate and reflect/comment through activities such as blogs and wikis.

Web 2.0 activities allow students to continue to edit, learn, and comment even after a project is over. It allows them to blog about current topics they are learning about as well as go back and comment on other people's blogs. Web 2.0 allows users to be continual learners to information they've read or posted/commented about.
