    I choose to bookmark this page due it addresses how individuals with hearing impairments can access and overcome their disibiliites using web 2.0 technologies in the classroom. I bookmarked it as it introduced a new concept called vodcasting. Vodcasting is lessons recorded as video. It is similar to podcasting, but it is purely video with no sound. A teacher could create a podcast for their students from a lecture, and a vodcast for hearing impaired students using a similar web 2.0 technology. The vodcast would be in sign language and the podcast would be sound.
