Welcome to day 2 at the Discovery Educator Network Midwest Regional Summer Institute. Today we are exploring the world of Web 2.0 tools and our tour guide is none other than Will Richardson. Will showed us some great examples of these tools being used in education, discussed some of the social aspects of our students using social networks and some thoughts about how these tools are changing the face of education - or rather, how they SHOULD be changing the current face of education.
Thoughts from Will about Education and Web 2.0
1. Schools are closed but should be open and accessible
2. Change from individual learning spaces to collaborative learning networks
3. From "just in case learning" to "just in time learning"
4. Change from text to multimedia
5. Change from working alone for an audience of one to working together for an audience of many
6. Students performing as teachers
