basic description of how the term web 2.0 originated!

During Spring 2009, students in my Creative Activities for Young Children class will be exploring technology tools that could be used in early childhood settings. As part of a class assignment, they will be tagging sites for this group and posting information in this forum about a specific tool they have explored in depth. We are also collecting our group's findings on a wiki at CHFD5130.wikispaces.com, and would welcome you to visit us.

One of our goals is to help build the collection of sites for this group, so others can learn from what we are discovering. We would also like for this process to be an open dialogue. We'd love feedback, questions, and ideas about the tools we are sharing, and want to hear your opinions and experiences. We hope these posts will be helpful to the entire ECETECH community, and will give you more ideas for your own work with technology and young children.

Thanks for allowing us to join and support this community, while learning about how to use Diigo!
