Week 1 ED 270

Today we pretty much just got started. We talked a lot about different sites and how they could be used in the classroom. We created accounts for Google, and Flickr and blogs.
I learned about  WEB 1.0 and WEB 2.0 and how in WEB 1.0 there was no interaction you basically went to the page and read it and moved on. In WEB 2.0 you can now leave comments and have real time interaction within the sites. We were given a list of different types of sites and interactions. For example Wiki sites and social media sites. I am pretty new to this type of stuff and although I have facebook, and in the past had myspace and other types of blogs and social media I don't really understand how to use the hashtag for twitter and I don't have an account for any other sites. I am excited to learn more about how to use these things in the classroom. We also looked at different types of APPS on the computer and created puzzles and what not from pictures that we had access to.
