Web 2.0 Tools for Education (Workshop/Presentation) http://whiplash.pbwiki.com/ Web 2.0 Tools for Education : Presentations
This will be a lightening fast introduction to a selection of powerful online tools that teachers and students can use in and out of the classroom.
I will discuss some powerful uses of one tool in 10 minutes. When the alarm goes off I'll stop and move on to the next tool.
When we're all done you'll probably have Whiplash! You'll have the next hour to recover with some self-directed and guided exploration into the tool(s) that most interests you.
The audio from this workshop will be recorded and uploaded to this wiki as a series of 10 minute podcasts -- one for each tool we discussed. Look at the bottom of each page for links to the audio.
