Thing five

Howdy again, School 2.0. Interesting extension of the web 2.0. This concept can help many in the education field. If you don't know something or you are trying to find information on a subject, guess what, you can possibly find it in the education blogs. As all of you smart educators know, that we don't just learn at school, bet everywhere we go, and everything we do. Having school types of nets and blogs can assist many of the teachers and students to learn more about their profession. I like the concept that we have places to go to talk with many different people all over the world about education or anything we want. Educators can share their ideas and information to as many as would want it. The one thing that I would worry about would be a concept or idea that might not be sound, that might be used by someone that is new to the system. The reason I state this is because you have all sorts of people that get on these sites and some know some stuff and some don't. So be careful. What is so cool about this system is that, we are all busy and can't always stick around to talk about things, but many get some time at home to get on the net to talk and discuss ideas. This is a great way to help each other in certain groups. Like a group at a high school, or educators in a city, or in the state, you get my drift. Possibilities for the future are very similar to what is happening now. Use by teachers to get information about education, use by teachers to get in touch with other educators about reforms and other subject matter. Use by students to learn and understand what is right and what is wrong about matters of education. Who knows what else is possible in the future. My mind can't expand too much more. I'm coming from a time of using manual typewriters.
