Blogs, Wikis, & Web 2.0 in the Classroom

Blogs, Wikis, & Web 2.0 in the Classroom

Presentation for Wisconsin State Reading Association | February 8, 2008
© Dawn Hogue | Sheboygan Falls High School

This presentation is about how Web tools, like Blogs and Wikis, help us create community and collaboration within our classrooms. And in doing so, we may also

  • get students excited about writing and thinking
  • teach students about being responsible Web content generators
  • give students an authentic audience for whom to write
  • help students participate in the collaborative community of Web 2.0
  • give students practice in using tools that the real world uses
  • eliminate walls--school can be anywhere there is a computer and the Internet
  • time and space really are relative--we can collaborate with anyone, anywhere, anytime (in different time zones)
  • learn more, ourselves, about how technology integration pushes our thinking as teachers
  • and more . . . .

Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us
