8 Possibilities for Education
Web 2.0 & New Possibilities for Education Web 2.0 provides a expansive learning world “in which the Web is seen as a two-way medium, where people are both readers and writers. The main catalyst for this is social software, allowing communication and collaboration between two or more people”. „Power to the people“ se sem, myslim, vyznamove nehodi 8

9 Glogster EDU 2.0 The innovative characteristic of EDU 2.0 is
a shift to educational social networking in the classroom and beyond. Teachers and students share Glogs; graphic elements, projects, and ideas. They are able to establish groups not only within a classroom or school but also within a state, region, or beyond and thus promote their work with a broad audience of educators and students. At the same time they are protected from inappropriate outside content because teachers securely administer accounts, groups and discussion boards.

10 Inside your Virtual Classroom

11 Students are now ready for new web 2.0 technology in the classroom
33% of online teens share their own creations online, such as artwork, photos, stories, or videos. 32% say that they have designed or worked on webpages or blogs for others, including groups to which they belong, friends or school assignments. Almost one in five internet-using teens (19%) say they remix content that they find online into their own artistic creations. All of the above figures are increasing - NOW is the time to broadly initiate the interactive program, Glogster.
