This document discusses Web 2.0 tools that can be used in social studies classrooms. It begins by defining Web 1.0 as a read-only web and Web 2.0 as a read/write web where people are both consumers and producers. It then lists 10 Web 2.0 tools - Prezi, Blabberize, Glogster, Podomatic, ToonDoo, TypePad, VoiceThread, Wikispaces, Xtimeline, and ZeeMaps. For each tool, it provides a brief description and examples of how it could be used for social studies lessons and student projects. The document encourages teachers to start small with Web 2.0, develop student experts, and be prepared before moving lessons
