As very much a techno novice the idea of this course is a little daunting. Having taught for 26 years it has been interesting to see how technology has changed and impacted on the classroom and beyond but we are now clearly progressing at an enormous rate.
Having taken a years leave it will be good to be able to spend some time on this endeavour.
So this is my first day of Web Two-ing! Thanks to the generous Jenny I am started on a technical journey that is obviously going to take me out of my comfort zone!
The background info to Web 2 surprised me as I thought it was just a CEO thing but clearly it is much more. I'm glad the two videos addressed some of the issues around the possible draw backs. Being aware of your virtual footprint is also an interesting sign of the times. Gives a whole new dimension to applying for jobs and potential employers finding more info than they would get from a referee!
Good Luck Helen, hope Web 2.0 helps you out! Ps. You are not the only one daunted by all of this xx
ReplyDeleteHelen, it can be very daunting! However the more familiar you can become with the Web 2.0 tools the less frightening they become!
ReplyDeleteHelen, I just learnt how to use delicious and I think you will find it really useful.

Hi Helen,
ReplyDeleteI also found starting web 2.0 a little daunting. There is so much I didn't know.... We really do keep learning everyday. I am looking forward to using some of these great tools with the stage 3 students. Congratulations on finishing I am almost there!
