Needless to say that we are in a culture where technology is bringing our ideas to new heights. The more I blog the more I come to realize that Web 2.0 is not so much technology as it is an idea. It’s the idea that can be backed and expanded by technology to further collaboration. After seeing the videos it gave me ideas on how to use it to collaborate with students and with my colleagues. One of the sites that I’ve actually begun to enjoy looking at is the Creative Commons site where we get some of the videos. It’s actually really interesting to see all the videos they have!
If you think about it, Rate My Professor.com is a social media website where students can not only rate their professors but also leave comments and even tag them as well. This gives students the ability to choose their professors (provided they are listed) based on performance. What an idea! What a concept! Think of the things we can do in that context alone!
So how can I use this for my students? I’m not exactly sure yet to be honest with you. I’m limited being that I’m a P.E. teacher and Volleyball coach at the moment, but why not use it if it will help, right? How can I use this for my colleagues? Not sure on that one as well. I’ll keep thinking though and see what I come up with.
