=**Welcome to Your Resource for WEB 2.0 Tools!**=

Web 2.0 tools have the potential to enhance learning opportunities for students in your classrooms. The first step, however, is for you to become familiar with all of the tools available to you. That's where your classmates come in...


 * Each student will follow directions for becoming a writer and editor of this wiki. Our first goal is for each student group to work collaboratively to research one of the topics below:**

BLOGS COURSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS GOOGLE TOOLS PODCASTING RSS SOCIAL BOOKMARKING SOCIAL NETWORKING VIDEOCONFERENCING WIKIS OTHER TECH TOOLS


 * Each student group is responsible for developing the page on their chosen topic. The group's page should include at least the following four components:**

1. A definition/description of the tool.

2. A description of how the tool can be used to enhance classroom instruction (at least 3 settings)

3. Links to (and descriptions of) some of the online tools that teachers may explore.

4. Descriptions of HOW TO set up and begin utilizing the tools. Include videolinks (not Youtube!)

Be sure to credit your sources, recommend websites on the topics, and share pictures, quotes or other documents. Do a quality job. You and your professional colleagues will continue to utilize this resource well beyond the completion of this course!
