This newfangled idea known as Web 2.0 opens up tons of possibilities for educators on various levels, giving them tools to show students information and open up subjects to new levels of interactivity. For any teacher that has access to a computer with the internet in their classroom, the many Web 2.0 tools create new ways for them to teach, helping to hold students interests for longer than traditional methods.
Out of the 10 tools we discussed and researched in class, the one that stands out to me with possibilities in the art classroom would have to be VoiceThread. This tool would make critiquing and analyzing artworks more interactive, and most students could cooperate on their own time at home. The ability to draw on the screen and comment in real time really makes an online critique come alive!
also, Glogster isn't bad either... :)
Here's a link to my own "glog" I made for class:
