Web 2.0 is defined by “a web-based platform for applications and services” This means that all my files I can access anywhere, anytime’s on any computer. It surprises be how fast the computer world is advancing. I remember days that if something happened to your computer or file is was gone and there was nothing you can do about it. I think this will be beneficial to be because I won’t have to worry about hauling my laptop around or losing important information or backing up everything I have. This will create a lot less stress of the worrying of the malfunction of the computer and all your hard work vanishing into thin air. This will be very useful in my future teaching career.
A web based tool I will probably use in the future is Google Docs. This will allow me to create a website for my students and parents and a way to keep an open communication line and a helpful tool for questions. This can also help the student catch up quicker if they miss a class. I also would incorporate blogger into my classroom. I can post assignments and have my class turn it in online and have class discussions through blogger. Blogger also opens up the line of communication between students where they can comment on each other blogs and get to know each other.

Docs and Blogging are 2 great tools to begin with. Keep open and eyes and ears for other equally powerful tools!
