Introduction to Web 2.0 - Part 2
In this session we will continue with Web 2.0 and how it can be used in the classroom. You will get firsthand experience using various Web 2.0 tools that you can then apply in the classroom. This will build on some of the skills you learned and ideas you discussed in the previous session. This is a 2 part session. Please bring a lesson plan with you that you have used in class before.
 * Overview**:

Teachers will:
 * Objectives**:
 * 1) Be able to create a lesson using a Web 2.0 tool
 * 2) Be able to use various Web 2.0 tools in your classroom

>>
 * Training Activities:**
 * 1) We will continue using Web 2.0 tools that you started working with in Part 1. Here is the list again in case you forgot to add your tool to your favorites: If you have already set up an account for one and would like to work with another one, feel free to do so.
 * Blogger (Web Log)
 * Delicious (Social Bookmarking)
 * Grou.ps (Social Network)
 * Wikispaces (Wiki)
 * Wordle (Word Clouds)
 * Voki (Language Tool)
 * Screencast-O-Matic (Video Instruction)
 * 1) Now that you are familiar with Web 2.0 tools, I want you to create a lesson that uses one of them. If you chose Wordle or Voki, you may want to use another tool in addition to these, but that is up to you. Use the lesson that you brought along with you. Feel free to collaborate with others in you subject area and/or content area. Create the write up using [|Google Docs]. Once you have created your lesson, please post a link to it on the wiki page titled "2c - Web 2.0 lesson plans."
