How Familiar Are You With the Web 2.0 Lexicon?
What Are the Possible Downsides of Using Web 2.0 Applications? Applications:
◦ may go up and down◦ may get bought out and thus change◦ may create things that can’t leave the confines of
the particular web site (e.g. can’t be downloaded to a disc/dvd/etc…)
Students:◦ with computers at home some may get to spend
more time on projects than students without since it’s easily accessible.
◦ will have to sign up for services.
A Note on Blocking EPSB and ECS block many Web 2.0 sites To solve this:
◦ Submit a written request to your technology department which provides a rational, pedagogical justification for the site to be unblocked at your school and even between specific times.
◦ Describe how you will keep students safe.
