Reflection Question: Were there any Web 2.0 tools that we talked about today that you feel would help further education? How might you use them in your teaching? Also, how might Facebook be utilized in education?
I feel that youtube is a great Web 2.0 that if used properly can definitely further learning. It can be used to show videos of example activities that I was my PE students to do or if I teach music on the side, I can use youtube as examples of good and back singers or piano technique. Youtube also has a wide variety of videos that can be used as examples or presentations to help demonstrate a point or cue.
Facebook could be utilized through a facebook group. If all the students are a member of the same group then, similar to an email, students can also receive updates and notes through facebook. Facebook could be a modern replacement of emails. Facebook can also serve a similar purpose as a class website. A teacher can create a facebook page for the class with updates and assignments. Facebook can easily be utilized in education.
