Web 2.0 is a new term for me. I have learned that it means the evolution of the internet into a fully interactive and collaborative resource. This same concept is being applied to the class room environment as School 2.0. This means that the instructional approach to teaching is evolving along with technology. After reviewing several sites and list, I see that the possibilities are truly limitless. Web based software and internet access now allow for a higher level of involvement of the student into their own learning experience. I found this site by Steve Hargadon to be very informative. http://www.stevehargadon.com/2008/03/web-20-is-future-of-education.html The site lists the Top Ten Trends that are important to educators and learning with Web 2.0.
Trend #1: A New Publishing Revolution.

Trend #3: Everything Is Becoming Participative.
Trend #4: The New Pro-sumers.
Trend #5: The Age of the Collaborator.
Trend #6: An Explosion of Innovation.
Trend #7: The World Gets Even Flatter and Faster.
Trend #8: Social Learning Moves Toward Center Stage.
Trend #9: The Long Tail.

I found this site to be extremely informative and I will be using it as a guide to help further my learning process into this new age of technology.
