This document discusses using Web 2.0 tools for teaching and learning. It begins by defining Web 2.0 as the use of social media and cloud-based technologies to facilitate collaboration and sharing online. The document then explores several specific Web 2.0 tools that can be used in educational contexts, including tools for creating images, videos, presentations, assessments, podcasts, wikis and more. It provides examples of how each type of tool could be used to enhance student engagement and the learning process.

no computer? – burn podcast to DVD for TV use
