This is week 13 and what we learn during this week lecture is all about Web 2.0 Tools and how it can be use in education. This lecture was held by Dr Hazrati. Web 2.0 is about the social media as a major component that can be use in education such as internet applications which allow sharing and collaboration opportunities to people and help them to express themselves online. Example of Web 2.0 include hosted services (Google Maps), Web applications (Google Docs, Flickr), Video sharing sites (YouTube), wikis (Media Wiki), blogs (WordPress), social networking (Facebook) and many more. There are so many advantages in using web 2.0 such as it available at any time, any place, variety of media. Learners can actively be involved in build the knowledge and can create dynamic learning.
As future teachers, we learn web 2.0 because we will continue to be a 21st century educator for our very important communities which is our students. The use of Web 2.0 Tools to support instruction is vital. The use of Web 2.0 tools is transforming our work and the way we support students in the classroom. As schools bring more technology into their classrooms, teachers will in turn strive to put more technology in their students. They can be used to teach curriculum content, store data, create or edit video, edit photos, collaborate and so on. Now, we as students in university are using ‘MOOC’ for our courses that runs online. So it is true that we cannot run from the rise of technology. We must adapt with it and use it in our learning and teaching process. Khir.
