Abstract

This paper focuses on educational applications of Web 2.0, a new form of network-based software in which the focus is on user-created content, which evolves through social interactions and collaboration with other users. The paper will offer participants an overview of various Web 2.0 technologies; provide examples and demonstration of several cutting-edge Web 2.0 technologies, and discuss best practices for utilization of Web 2.0 technologies for teaching and learning. Experiences and best practices in incorporating Web 2.0 technologies for instruction in organizational settings and higher education will be highlighted.
