Web 2.0 tools

7 August 2007
I love these social networking tools them whether they should be known under that title or tag or some other!

So far, I have explored a number of applications, they include:

del.icio.us - this tool is very useful for research and so simple to use.
this blogspot
jotcloud
ning
clipmarks
wikispace
bubbl.us
Pageflakes

Most look like they could have some aplicationin classrooms.

I am also monitoring several blogs maintained by edtech experts. These are very useful and I'll provide an update soon on what I have learnt.

Social Networking

Progress so far.

I have been researching numerous tools, including podcasts, vodcasts, wikis. All in the context of learning.

I believe these tools will be useful to teachers with a little support and scaffolded resources.

This blog will be of use to me, since I can reflect on what I am doing, finding and possibly achieving.

I have looked at del.icio.us and I think it is fantastic!

I have also signed up to a poll site, a brainstorm site and I am looking at a number of other sites.

I hope I won't attract spam.
