![Why Web 2.0 Rocks:
"Education ... traditionally focuses on lectures and exams,
forcing students to memorize complex descriptive terminologies
and taxonomies. 'This conventional approach is at odds with
knowledge about how people learn. ... Researchers have
demonstrated that students learn more effectively when they are
actively engaged in the learning process and self
evaluation. [Web 2.0] applies this active learning approach using
... social computing technologies, such as Facebook, MySpace,
blogs, cell phones, etc., to increase student engagement in
botanical science and to address known recruitment and
retention challenges."
