This document discusses various technologies that can be used for instruction, including SMART Notebook software for interactive content creation and sharing, LiveText for assessment, and RubiStar for developing rubrics. It also outlines features of the Wimba virtual classroom platform and describes concepts related to Web 2.0 like Ajax, mashups, RSS, blogs, wikis, and social networking. Key Web 2.0 technologies and applications highlighted include Google Maps, YouTube, Prezi, Dropbox, WordPress, and open educational resources from the OpenCourseWare Consortium. The document concludes with an overview of the Semantic Web and the potential for Web 3.0 to enable more intelligent searching and automated task completion.

1. Instruction Using Technology

2.  SMART Notebook software is
collaborative learning software and
content delivery platform that gives
users access to interactive, multimedia
content and the tools to edit, save and
share that content.

3. LiveText
NOTE: You will be provided with extensive training
and support (separate from this project).

4. RubiStar
 RubiStar is a tool to help the teacher
who wants to use rubrics, but does not
have the time to develop them from
scratch.

institutions and associated organizations
from around the world creating a broad
and deep body of open educational
content using a shared model.

20. Semantic Web (The next big thing?)
The Semantic Web is “a web of data”.
HTML describes documents, while RDF
describes things. It extends the network
of hyperlinked web-pages and how they
are related to each other, enabling
automated agents to access the Web
more intelligently and performed tasks
on behalf of the user

21. Web 2.0 to Web 3.0
Some Internet experts believe the next generation of the
Web -- Web 3.0 -- will make tasks like your search for
movies and food faster and easier. Instead of multiple
searches, you might type a complex sentence or two
in your Web 3.0 browser, and the Web will do the rest.
In our example, you could type "I want to see a funny
movie and then eat at a good Mexican restaurant.
What are my options?" The Web 3.0 browser will
analyze your response, search the Internet for all
possible answers, and then organize the results for
you.

22. Web 2.0 to Web 3.0
The Web 3.0 Semantic Web. There is already a
lot of work going into the idea of a semantic
web, which is a web where all information is
categorized and stored in such a way that a
computer can understand it as well as a
human. Many view this as a combination of
artificial intelligence and the semantic web.
The semantic web will teach the computer
what the data means, and this will evolve into
artificial intelligence that can utilize that
information.
