What is Web 2.0?
When I was growing up, my parents told me, “Finish your dinner. People in China and India are starving.” I tell my daughters, “Finish your homework. People in India and China are starving for your job.”
---Thomas Friedman, 2005

Encourage teachers to engage
students in their own learning
“We should instead use technology funding to bolster new learning models and innovations, such as online-learning environments, to level the playing field and allow students from all walks of life -- from small, rural communities to budget-strapped urban schools -- to access the rich variety that is now available only to children in wealthy suburban districts.”

Do you think students are more engaged outside of
school than in school?
What are you doing about it?
How young professionals say they learn.
“I can look it up on-line, find an expert and then collaborate with that person on a solution.”
“If I had to learn something new today the first place I would
go is Google, then forum sites, then video
sources.”
“I would ask professionals and see if they would share their information with me.”
“I would first go to Google, then Wikipedia, then my address book to see who I know that I could contact and leverage their knowledge to help me.”
“Consult with peers, look on the Internet to search and learn information about the topic I am interested in.”
