2. 0 TECHNOLOGY IN THE CLASSROOM This is a video on 2. 0 technology in the classroom. It’s a great example on how correctly to teach with technology and how children learn with technology. I will use this to understand how children learn with technology and how to teach them using technology.

TWITTER Twitter is a great way for teachers to stay connected and to share ideas. It is also the most popular 2. 0 technology page. I will use this to stay connected to other teachers and this also just helps to stay connected with technology that students are using now.

GLOGSTER This is a great website to make interactive posters. This makes it more exciting than just looking at a regular sheet of paper. They also can view these online on their own. I will use this to put out information that children need to know in my classroom.

STORY BIRD This is a great websites for digital story telling. It is nice because it is different from reading straight from a book and you can also tell your own stories. I can use story bird to create fun stories to read to my younger children about certain subjects that we are covering at the time.

PREZI This is a great way to make creative and eye catching presentations. I will use this on days when the children are not focused and need some thing to help them pay attention to what we are learning.

MIX BOOK This a safe and secure website for children to create books or such things with their photos or any photos that they choose. They can make books, calendars, class projects and yearbooks. I could use this at the beginning of the school year for student introductions and also at the end of the year for making year books.

QUIZ Here's a quiz on this info! I had a great time going through all of the 2. 0 technology websites. I learned so many new tools that I can use in my future class and also for myself now in my current classes. I knew there were a lot of tools for teachers to use out there but I have never taken the time to search for them. So this is a great activity to open people eyes to how much is really out there. My friend web 2. 0 page was the Mix book. I am a big picture person and visual learner. So I would love to use this for myself and to learn about the children's life in a fun way. I think they would really enjoy showing images that are important to them in their lives.
