Thing 5

The 2 Links I looked at explained what web 2.0 was and then showed how the school system technology director in Philadelphia was using all of these new things to her advantage.  Web 2.0 is the different things on the internet now such as wiki's and things of that sort that better organize a learning community and make things much easier and quicker.  Using social networking sites and blogs like these for example  help make learning easier for the students and makes things much more accessible.  I see much more of this in the future. First of all, I believe that everything in the school will be computerized in the future.  All the students will have like ipads or something and the pen and paper will be no longer used.  I see more social networking sites being used in the education department.  They have already tried to incorportate some of this and it will just get better with time.
