"Please share examples of how you have used these tools to help train teachers. Sometimes how we use these tools to teach adults can spark ideas for how to use them in the classroom. I am not interested in finding the absolute BEST ways to implement web tools into the classroom. I am looking for ALL examples of how teachers have used these tools. Teachers have this amazing way of taking a project and putting their own spin on it to make it work for them and their students, but many times we just need an example to get us going."

Huge resource! Topics include: Tools for Creating Editing and Sharing Tools for Communicating and Networking Tools for Managing Time, Tasks, and Information Tools for Making it All Work

This wiki was created for school library media specialists by Dr. Donna Baumbach and Dr. Judy Lee, University of Central Florida. The purpose is to provide information about some of the new web-based tools (Web 2.0) and how they can be used and are being used by school library media specialists and their students and teachers. Much of the information--including identifying a need for this kind of information--is the result of a survey conducted in 2008 of over 600 school library media specialists about their knowledge and use of web-based tools in library media programs.

My focus has been on evaluating these applications for potential use in education and training. I have indicated with a star () below those which I have been using and seem to have strong potential. Applications are broken down into the following categories: Academic, Audio, Bookmarks, Calendar, Collaboration, Database, Desktop, Documents, Drawing, Feed Reader, File Manager, Forms, Lists, Miscellaneous, News, Organizer, Photos, Polls, Presentation, Project, Spreadsheet, Video, Weblog, Wiki, and Word Processor.

This wiki provides links to multiple Web2.0 resources and tools for educators. Links are provided by site page category links.

Uno de los servicios más exitosos de la Web 2.0 son los denominados Wikis. Basta con mencionar a Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre y de construcción colectiva, como el ícono de lo que representa las posibilidades de esta tecnología informática en Internet.
