Web+2.0+Tools

**Web 2.0 Tools for the 21st Century Classroom**

 Session 6:

 * In this class session, class participants will explore web 2.0 tools that can be used in the 21st Century classroom and apply their knowledge and understanding to create an activity for their classroom.


 * Quote for the Session: **"My vision of school/classroom 2.0 is, more than anything else, about conversations. Traditional schools involved teachers and textbooks delivering information to students, and students reflecting that information back. To better serve their future, today’s classrooms should facilitate teaching and learning as a conversation — two-way conversations between teachers and learners, conversations between learners and other learners, conversations among teachers, and new conversations between the classroom and the home and between the school and its community."
 * ~ David Warlick**
