The document discusses using learning technologies and web 2.0 tools in the classroom. It provides examples of three lesson plans that utilize different web 2.0 applications: the first has students using an image tagging tool to work on verb tenses, the second has groups collaboratively adding paragraphs to an online story, and the third involves students recording and sharing a screencast of directions to a local area. The document also includes recommendations for websites and tools for consuming, creating, and recording audio/visual content as well as templates for attendees to develop their own action plans for integrating web 2.0 in their teaching.

Editor's Notes
Learning Technologies for the Classroom can be used with a variety of teacher audiences, but it is especially intended for:
- inexperienced teachers or teachers in pre-service training who wish to receive a basic introduction to ICT
- experienced teachers who are being introduced to learning technologies for the first time through in-service training.
Learning Technologies for the Classroom aims to help English language teachers integrate learning technologies (ICT) into their lessons.
By following this course, teachers will be able to:
* comprehend how learning technologies are being used in education and why* develop an awareness of the learning technologies available today
* develop an ability to critically evaluate what is available on the Web* develop a knowledge of practical applications of the technologies* develop a technical understanding of the tools and the technical skills necessary to use them in class * apply this knowledge to integrate learning technologies into syllabi and lessons* use learning technologies in a safe, engaging, effective, efficient and transformative manner * recognise the potential of new Web tools as learning technologies.
